About Us
Hampton Infants School Association ior HISNA is a charity which
raises funds for the school. Our fundraising is led by parents and volunteers who
generously donate time, money and materials to our fundraising efforts. These funds support the school with new resources and equipment and educational experiences for the children.
Over the years, our efforts have raised tens of thousands of pounds to support the school - from climbing frames, to new books, STEM learning activities and magical holiday
celebrations. Every child at Hampton Infants benefits from the monies raised now and in the future. This year we further funded the reception playground, nursery school council garden, authors events, subsidised school trips, funded an explorer dome and author event.
We organise numerous events and celebrations through the year
