Structure, Governance and Management:
The Friends of Eastwick Schools refers to the group of parents who work together in a volunteer capacity to raise money for the school, to enable it to fund resources over and above those covered by its budget.
There is a formal, elected committee running the day-to-day affairs of the organisation - which comprises a Chair, a Treasurer, Secretary, 1 other Trustee and 2 co-opted members. In addition, there is a group of un-elected parents who work with the formal committee to shape and deliver a programme of events and activities during the school year - all with the specific purpose of raising funds, which will be spent within the school for the benefit of the children.
The committee plus additional volunteers (all school parents and carers are welcome to attend any of the meetings and there is usually a core of 5-10 regular attendees plus other parents who attend when they can) meet on a half-termly basis to review the progress of the whole event and activity programme for that term and to start to plan events happening the following term. There is also an Annual General Meeting, held during the A utumn term or Spring term (usually in October) to which all parents and carers are also invited and specific sub-committee meetings held, as required, to plan and deliver specific events such as the Christmas or Summer Fair, Fireworks Night or the Summer BBQ.
The type of events and activities run by the Friends include, but are not restricted to, seasonal Fairs, a Fireworks celebration, an annual BBQ, second hand uniform sales, children's discos and sponsored Trainer Trek. In addition to the core group of Friends planning, organising and delivering these events many of the schools' parents and carers are involved in volunteering 'on-the-day' to make them happen.
On average, the charity raises around £25,000-£30,000 every year for the benefit of the children currently attending both the Infant and Junior Schools. W e have raised in the region of £25,000.
This money is spent on short to medium-term projects either suggested by the school (for example playground equipment, reading books and PE equipment) or identified as an opportunity by the Friends as being of benefit however this is always with agreement
with the school senior leaderhsip team as they are best placed to know what will bring the maximum benefit to the school.
