QKS PTA
The Queen Katherine School, Parent Teacher Association (QKS PTA) is a group of parents and staff who support the school.
We organise social and fundraising events and help out at school occasions such as drama performances and Sports Day.
This years' committee is Claire Wickham, Linda Fone, Kerry Howarth and Geraldine Wade.
Joining the QKS PTA is a great way to get involved in the life of the school. We are committed to help provide the best education for our children.
We meet once every half term to plan activities and events. If you are able to give some of your time and join us, either as a regular member or occasional volunteer who can give a few hours now and again, you would be most welcome!
How to Help, Support or Join
