FOBs - Friends of Buntingsdale

The Parent Teachers and Friends Association (known as FOBs) raises money for all the children at Buntingsdale. The FOBs, run exclusively by parents/carers, meet regularly to plan fundraising activities and to plan where the money raised will be spent.

They help pay for equipment and activities for all the children at Buntingsdale. Any parent, family member or carer can join the FOBs. You can keep up to date with our meeting date and events on the Facebook page, and just come along to a meeting to get involved. It’s a great opportunity to meet other parents, enjoy a hot drink and help decide what we do for our children! Don’t worry if you can’t make every meeting either – we are all helping out FOBS where we can around our own work shifts and other commitments and completely understand that not all of us can make each meeting. We discuss future meeting dates at each meeting and post them on our Facebook page to keep all updated who couldn’t attend.
