We Welcome Donations!

We Welcome Donations!

We're raising money to Fund playground equipment for our school. From nothing at all to an adventure frame and play equipment for many years to come.

The children really need a play area where they can grow, play, imagine & spread there wings...! We've already started, Phase 1 (Floor painting & Seating) Phase 2 (Handmade Gazebo) built during the Easter Break! But Phase 3, an area where they can climb & challenge themselves is a big one!

There are many ways we are fundraising Discos/Movie Nights/Gift Rooms & our Summer Fayre planning is under way, all of which the children love!!

If you would like to donate towards the Children's KS2 Playground Fund, you can do it with PayPal, a debit card or credit card via this button below:

 

Here are just some of the fundrasing events and challenges that we have completed so far:

The Pines Got Tough in a Muddy Run!

The latest challenge the Pines have undertaken was 'The Pines Get Tough'. Friends of The Pines PTA managed to go one step better than Tough Mudder with a Military Assault Course! AND not just any old course it's The best OCR Mud Run & Military assault course in the UK. You might have heard of it featured on Sky Sports, Britain & Irelands Next Top Model, Sports Relief 2012, Fat Families, Soccer AM, Chris Evans and Johnny Sporting Challenge, Disney Goalmouth, Mr World and BBC This Week... It is also home to the famous "Nuts Challenge" which is held twice a year and incorporates their assault/obstacle course.

With 30-40 obstacles, tunnels, tyres, rope swing, water dippers and more this is a fun muddy army/military assault/obstacle course. The Friends Of The Pines PTA and supporters got the whole course to ourselves to enjoy on the 26 May 2018! 

It was amazing fun and showed just how well we work as a team too!

"Since my daughter started at The Pines School in September last year I have been amazed at the proactiveness and efforts of the PTA in all they do for the children of the school. Among other things, they are currently raising money to provide play equipment for the KS2 playground, which is currently completely empty with nothing for the children to do in their breaks.

There are many ways the PTA are fundraising but one that caught my attention was 'The Pines Get Tough'! So! Since I wanted to be 'fitter in my forties' I took part! Not everyone trained for it but it didn't matter, the experience was amazing and was so much fun! Everyone was able to complete most of the obstacles and I can't recomend it enough! Such a great team effort - you'd struggle to do it on your own for sure! Together we did it!"

Bracknell Half Marathon

When you have a long term fundraising goal it can be a bit like running a half marathon... erm well maybe not, but running a half marathon is and that is exactly what our PTA Chair and some of our mums and dads did! AND all of them did it in under 2.5 hours! Well done Team!

"I wanted to do my bit & this year is full of challenges... Ill be jumping out of a plane!! A Sky Dive on Sunday April 22nd!! Alongside The Pines Headteacher! & a parent Lez Cockrill!!"

Friends of The Pines PTA 

 

Would you jump out of a plane for your school?

Well our Head Teacher, our PTA Chair and one of our Dads did just that!
