Welcome To Silsoe VC Lower School Parent Teacher Assosiation (PTA)
Welcome to Silsoe VC Lower School and welcome to the PTA! We are a strong fundraising committee run by parent volunteers. Every parent/carer becomes a member of Silsoe PTA when their child joins the school and we encourage you to get involved.
The PTA exists to advance the education of the children, and enrich their experiences at school. In order to do this, we raise funds by putting on events and other fundraising activities over the course of the school year.
These events cannot take place without the help of dedicated parents and staff, so we urge you to join in and help out. Not only is getting involved fun, and a great way to meet other parents, but your child will also enjoy participating in events as well as hugely benefitting from the funds we raise to enrich their learning environment.

What events do the PTA organise:
The PTA organises a range of events each year, including discos for the children, adult-only quiz evenings and family events such as the fantastic Autumn Fair and family bingo.
Christmas is a busy time with a Santa shop for children to buy for family and friends, turning children's artwork into Christmas cards, cheering the Santa Sleigh around the village and more.
Projects we fundraise for:
The on-going support and incredibly generous donations received from our school families allows our children to benefit from additional resources that the school budget alone cannot stretch to.
We are currently fundraising to instal new playground equipment for all children to enjoy and hope for this to be installed over Summer 2025.
These are some of things we have purchased or contributed to in the last few years:
- New Laptops for computing lessons
- Christmas pantomime for all children
- French day
- New Library resources and reading books
- Forest School
- Outdoor classroom and trim trail
