Friends of Bishopstone School (FOBS)

Welcome to Friends of Bishopstone School (FOBS)!

We are a registered charity raising money for one of the smallest schools in Wiltshire.

On this page, you will find information about who we are, how to contact us, and our latest fundraising news!

WHO ARE WE?

As a registered charity, we have 4 volunteer Trustees: Jade H (Chair), Jo M (Treasurer), Nikki P (Secretary), and Sara S (Co-Secretary). Our team also consists of staff and parent members who kindly donate their time to help us organise and run fundraising events and activities.

If you are interested in joining the FOBS committee or helping out with any fundraising events or activities, please get in touch with us via email (listed below) – we always appreciate an extra pair of hands, and we couldn’t do everything we do without our amazing volunteers!

Charity Name: Bishopstone C of E Primary School PFTA
Charity No: 1210036

We have adopted and follow the ParentKind constitution, and through our ParentKind membership, we are insured with Zurich.

WHAT DO WE DO?

Throughout the academic year, we work with the school to plan, organise, and run fundraising events and activities that raise money for the school and, most importantly, give the children some additional fun!

Our main events are the Christmas Fayre and Summer Party, but we also organise other events such as a weekly tuck shop, online bingo, refreshments at the KS1 Christmas Play and KS2 Summer Play, discos, cake sales, Bag2School collections … and more!

There is also a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to keep us organised and compliant.
