Who are we?
We are the Friends of North Downs Primary School (FONDS)
We are a team of parents of children at North Downs Primary School that volunteer to help raise money for the school (the Parent Teacher Association).
The team is led by Chair Kate Vernum and Treasurer Dan Fisher.
The core team (committee) consists of Matt Stevensen, Claire Gregory, Helen Glanfield, Jane Green, Susie Carini and Andrew, who are supported by a handful of regular volunteers.
We always need new volunteers!
We raise money through traditional fundraising, such as organising events and competitions, which we can’t do without your help.
All parents/carers of children at North Downs Primary School are welcome. We value whatever contribution you can make.
How much do we raise?
We raise between £10k - £15k per year
Our fundraising provides essential additional funds to the school. Recently we’ve funded…
– new blackout blinds for the school hall and IT suite
– the Christmas Marquee
– new roof for the gazebo
– media safety courses
– new touchscreen at Leigh
– new outdoor learning equipment
– gardening equipment for the school council
We’ve also donated thousands to the Children’s Trust and Great Ormond Street Hospital.
So thank you to all our organisers, volunteers, donors and sponsors!
“A huge thank you to FONDS for funding the purchase and installation of our new interactive screen at Leigh. This means that children can come together…and even join the assemblies held in the Brockham hall via Teams… it has made such a difference already!”
If you don’t have the time for fundraising or participating we gratefully accept donations!
