GOSDEN PTA
Gosden House School is fortunate to have a fantastic PTA. Events such as quiz nights, summer and Christmas fairs, raffles, etc. Events are published on our calendar on the front page of our website .Gosden House School Some new dates:
The PTA is involved in fundraising and we organise social events for parents and children, especially as our family members do not get to see each other frequently, so it is important for maintaining our community spirit. PTA also raises money to support the specific needs of our school.
The PTA makes a real difference to our school and their pupils, providing extra resources and, in some cases, making it possible for activities, such as school trips and family events to take place.
In a world where everyone’s time is precious getting people to join the PTA can be hard. But all parents and teachers are invited to join or get involved, even if little time is available.

PTA EVENTS AND FUNDRAISERS
29 March to 5 April – The Virtual Balloon Race
“What is a virtual balloon race?” I hear you ask! Well, essentially it’s an opportunity for you, your family and friends to get creative and get competitive! For only £3 you can personalise your own online hot air balloon, give it a name and pitch it against other balloons in our Gosden House Virtual Balloon Race. You’ll be able to see the balloons ‘in flight’ as the race happens and experience nail biting moments as the leaderboard changes. Prizes are on offer for the top 3 balloons, as well as for the last place contender, including vouchers for Dominos Pizza and Sarah’s Pop Up Gifts shop, who sell fantastic home accessories and gifts.
This event is being organised specifically to raise much needed funds to enrich our children’s experience at Gosden House. Do share with your family and friends as the more balloons involved the better the experience!
Take a look at https://www.balloonrace.com/Gosdenpta, our poster attached and our Facebook page @GosdenPTA for lots more information.
