I have been involved with the school PTA since about 2018. I took on the chair role in September 2022 and we became a PTFA. A little about myself.... I have 3 children, the oldest 2 have now left Exwick Heights and my eldest has just left Secondary school. I’m passionate about making our school a fun and inclusive place for all our children. I originally joined to get more involved to meet other parents, it’s turned into so much more. We have a fantastic team and certainly have lots of fun preparing and creating our events. We all understand how hard it is to juggle family and work life and then to ask you to give up some free time too, but the reward we get seeing the children's faces from the work we have put in makes it all worthwhile.

When my youngest started at Exwick Heights nursery I decided it was time to give back to the school where my older children had thrived by joining the PTA and helping to raise money that would directly benefit the children. Even with young children this was very easy as there was absolutely no pressure to be involved in anything that I didn't feel I could. Six years later, I'm proud of the events that we organise and the money that we raise for the children. Being part of a team of wonderful parents who give up their spare time to ensure the children have the best that we can give them is truly rewarding.
