PTFA

PTFA stands for Parents, Teachers & Friends Association and as a charity we raise funds for the much needed equipment and facilities at our school.

The committee is made up of both parents and teachers at Testbourne Community School. As a member of the PTFA you get to build relationships with teachers, staff, other parents & the wider community, make new friends & have some fun while helping the school to provide the best for the students.  Each year the PTFA tend to organise a Quiz Night, Christmas Craft Fair, Fun Run and TestFest, please see our news pages for further information about previous events.

Donations and Contributions

Please consider attending one of our fundraising events in the future or making a one-off or regular donation.

Our current fundraising goal is to raise enough money to provide a shelter on the playground to protect the students from the elements during breaktime and lunchtime.
