Friends of blenheim: PTA
Blenheim Primary School PTA is an all-inclusive group of committed teachers, parents and carers who are passionate about the community aspects of school life at Blenheim.
Everyone within our community is welcomed to be a member of the PTA, so please do come along to the meetings and volunteer for upcoming events. We know that time is precious to everyone, which is why you don't need to be at every event. There are plenty of ways you can get involved e.g. a one hour task, baking, sewing, DIY and so much more!

What Do We Do?
We organise a variety of events and activities throughout the year e.g:

Why Do We Do It?
The FOB is a registered charity, where all proceeds are channelled back into our amazing school. In the past, we have contributed to the development of our sensory garden and our brilliant reading treehouse. There are many other resources that, with your help and support, we can raise funds for to enhance our children’s educational journey.

Astra Recycling
We recently introduced the textile bank that is located in the visitors' car park. Astra recycling promotes textile recycling, reduces waste going to landfill and also gives the opportunity to offer something back for the textiles.
We recycle:
- clothes
- shoes (pairs)
- bed linen
- accessories:
- hats, belts, scarves, gloves, handbags
- soft toys
We don't recycle:
- duvets or cushions
- carpets or curtains
- off cuts
- soiled, dirty or ripped items
Many thanks for your continued support!
