Friends of Hayes School (Previously Hayes PTA)
Welcome to Friends of Hayes School
Who are we?
We’re a group of parents, carers and staff who want to support Hayes School and help our children get the most out of their time here.
Our Mission
• Build a friendly and inclusive school community
• Run events that bring people together and give students a real sense of belonging
• Raise funds to provide extra resources and opportunities that the school budget can’t always cover
Why join us?
• Stay connected – secondary school doesn’t have to mean losing touch with school life.
• Meet other parents – make connections you might not otherwise have.
• Have a say – share your ideas on how we can make Hayes even better.
• Share your skills – whether it’s baking, DIY, social media, admin, or something else, every bit helps.
• Make a difference – big or small, your involvement really does benefit our children.
What we do
From open days and concerts to fundraisers and socials, we work alongside the school to make things happen. The money we raise goes straight back into Hayes, funding equipment, experiences and projects that add something extra to our children’s education and wellbeing.
