Every parent and carer of the children at Tithe Barn school are members of the PTA and they are by far our most important resource.  Without you we simply wouldn't raise any money nor would we be able to run any of our events.​ However we do need a committee to keep things running smoothly and they have been busy preparing for the next academic year, which is anticipated to be fun and productive.

Class Reps 2025/2025

​

Our fantastic Class Reps are a vital function of FOTB. Each class has 2 Class Reps who support FOTB by circulating news and updates about events, requests for volunteers etc.

​

They act in the following roles:

​​

·    Serving as a valuable communication link between Parents and the PTA

·    Motivating and engaging parents to get involved with PTA fundraising events

·    Organising class social events (with and without children !)

·    Helping build social bonds across the parent community

·    Organising Christmas and end-of-year gifts for Teachers and Assistants​

Being a class rep is a great opportunity to get involved in some of the fabulous events and fundraising that goes on throughout the school year and is a very worthwhile and fulfilling role.
