Loved by God; United in Learning

Parent School Association (PSA)

The PSA is the ‘Parent and School Association’ here at Bishop Aldhelm’s. All parents/carers at Bishop Aldhelm’s are welcomed as members of our Parents and School Association.  The school is extremely grateful for the fantastic work carried out by our Association and we wholeheartedly support this group which raises lots of money to better the opportunities for all youngsters at Bishop Aldhelm’s.

Bishop Aldhelm's Primary School PSA comprises of a sub-committee and a full committee meeting regularly.  We work hard to enhance the fantastic learning opportunities at Bishop Aldhelm's Primary School.  Most recently we have raised funds for a new minibus which is used for a range of trips, sporting fixtures and music concerts.  We are very proud to have been able to fund the development of the outside area which now includes a staged area for our Key Stage One children as well as an outdoor learning area which is enjoyed by all our children from Pre-School to Year 6.  We also provide financial support for school trips for every year group and we love seeing how these help to bring the school's creative curriculum to life.

Any parent of any child is welcome to attend any meetings, if you would like to contact us please initially speak to the school office or Miss Draper.
