KWAF

The Katherine Warington PTA is named the Katherine Warington Association of Friends (KWAF). We are a friendly group of volunteers that consist not only of parents, but for guardians or Carers of current Katherine Warington Pupils.

We have a strong desire to lay the foundations of a supportive, inclusive, fun and successful association that will benefit current and future students.

The KWAF is newly formed, in line with the schools opening in September 2019 and we work together to:

Commence fundraising for the school through social events and other activities
Promote and build strengthened links between school and home
Encourage other parents and carers to become involved with the school community

The funds we raise will help to provide new facilities and resources which cannot be catered for in the existing school budget.

We plan to take steps to minimise the production of waste at KWAF events and activities and promote recycling where possible.

Membership

Membership is free and promotes involvement from all associated friends of Katherine

Warington School such as parents, guardians, families, staff, governors and students.

Membership of the Association shall comprise of:

Parents and Carers of current Katherine Warington School pupils.
