The
"Friends of Hart Plain" (FoHP), formerly "The
School Association", was set up in 1989. Its main aims
are fund raising, which benefits all our children, and social
events.
Membership automatically includes all Parents or Guardians
of children attending the school and all members of their
families. Mrs Beverley Cooper, Headteacher, oversees all
our decisions.
We have a committee who meet regularly to organise our main
fundraising and social events, such as the Summer Fayre,
Sponsored Bounce and Leaver's Disco, as well as other discos
throughout the year for the whole school. We also run a
Christmas shop which enables each child in the school to
purchase small gifts for his or her family. We are always
looking for new fundraising ideas so your input would be
most welcome.
The following are some of the items purchased by the Friends of Hart Plain (FoHP) in recent years :
- projector for ICT suite
