PSA Meeting - Wednesday 27th October


We are having PSA Meeting at the Dalriada on Wednesday 3rd October at 7.30 to start planning the Halloween Discos (Saturday 27th October) and other events. 

We are looking for someone to co-ordinate the Discos and volunteers to help on the evening with games, tuck shop, music, the door and crowd control. These events are great fun for the children and we can't run them without you! Please come along on Wednesday or get in touch with us if you can spare any time on the afternoon/evening of the 27th. 

Thank you.

PSA AGM - Tuesday 25th September

Welcome back to Towerbank Primary and the Parent Staff Association (PSA).

Now the children are settled in their classes, we need to turn our minds to raising much needed funds to help enrich our childrens everyday school experience.

The PSA AGM is on Tuesday 25th September at 7.30 pm in the main school.

Please join us to help discuss our fundraising plans for 2012-2013. Even if you can't attend our meetings, there are other ways of supporting the PSA, by attending or helping out at fundraising events, donating prizes, home baking or simply by shopping online through easyfundraising.

PSA Dates and Events 2012-13


Dear All

As we are finding it difficult to pinpoint a date for a PSA Meeting before the end of term, we have decided to send out this email inviting all our supporters to help us plan our fundraising events for 2012-13, hopefully coming up with some fresh new ideas and also to give us feedback on the events we have held this year. We are delighted to have raised over £6,600 since last August, most of which has been ringfenced for the fantastic new Wild Garden. We hope you will agree this is already looking amazing and will continue to provide a green haven for the children while the playground is being churned up for the new extension!

We are also looking for volunteers to come forward and help us organise these events and share the load a wee bit. This would not mean having to do it all on your own, which we know can be very daunting! You could work in pairs or gather a small team of friends to help you and we would provide support and plenty of volunteers to assist on the day! Please get in touch if you would like to give it a go!

As well as our usual school fairs and the popular discos, we have already had suggestions for a Pampered Chef evening after the Summer holidays, a Quiz Night, another Wine Tasting Event and a Christmas Raffle.

We look forward to hearing from you and thank you again for your continued support.

All the best



Sally, Libby, Kate and Sasha
