Parent Teacher Associations exist in some kind at every school, and St. Hugh's is no exception. You will instantly recognise how involved and inclusive our PTA is, whether you have been involved with the school for a long time or are a brand-new family joining our amazing community. Our school is fortunate to have a PTA that has played a vital role in the school community for more than 30 years. The PTA has raised tens of thousands of pounds over the years, which have been used to buy tools and materials that will improve our kids' educational opportunities and the school's infrastructure. The PTA serves to foster stronger ties between the home and the school, and it is a great way to socialise staff, parents, and friends while supporting the school and working toward a common objective. Ask any of the hundreds of parents who have volunteered at PTA activities over the years. It is also enjoyable, and our PTA will continue to be successful in its endeavours with the assistance of parents and employees. When your child starts school, every parent is a PTA member. Your PTA would not be able to accomplish what we do without your support.
