Weston Park Primary School

Welcome to Weston Park Home School Association. If you have a child at the school you are automatically a member. How much you get involved is up to you.

As a voluntary organisation the HSA is only as strong as our contribution to it, so we hope you will be encouraged to get involved as it can enhance your child's education and enjoyment at Weston Park.

The Purpose of the HSA at Weston Park:-

1) To help maintain good communications by acting as a two-way conduit between parents and the school.

2) To raise funds for activities and equipment not accounted for, either adequately or at all, in the school budget.

3) To help develop and maintain community cohesion at the school through the organisation of social events.

All parents are invited and very welcome to HSA meetings and events.

One way of getting involved is to volunteer to be a Class Representative for a school year. Class Reps are a vital link in the school between parents, the staff and the HSA. It is'nt a time consuming position, especially when the load is shared, which is why we encourage at least two Reps per Class, some classes decide to form a'team' of three or more Reps.

What do Class Representatives do?

1) Introduce themselves as Reps to other parents and teachers, perhaps by organising a class coffee morning, afternoon tea or evening drinks.

2) Attend HSA monthly meetings

3) Compile a 'Contact List' for the benefit of all parents in the class.

4) Help to distribute HSA e-mails, letters and publicity.

5) Help to sell tickets, arrange rotas and recruit helpers for HSA events.

6) Encourage participation and attendance of parents and teachers at school events and fund raising activities.

7) Listen to suggestions,queries or concerns and act as a conduit for information to the HSA, teacher or Headteacher.

8) Encourage parents to voice concerns to their teacher or the Headteacher.

9) Help in finding a replacement for the following school year.
