Friends of Portfields School (FOPS)
At Portfields Primary School, we believe in fostering a strong partnership between parents, teachers, and the wider community. This is where Friends of Portfields School (FOPS) comes in, a dynamic and dedicated group of parents and volunteers who play a vital role in supporting our school.
Active and Engaged:
FOPS is an active and vibrant part of the Portfields Primary community. They work tirelessly throughout the year to organize exciting events and raise valuable funds that directly benefit our pupils and enrich their learning experience.
Annual Highlights:
- Christmas Fair: A festive extravaganza filled with Christmas cheer, games, stalls, and delicious treats. It's a wonderful opportunity for families and the community to come together and celebrate the season.
- Summer Festival: A fun-filled day under the sun with games, activities, music, and food. It's a perfect way to celebrate the end of the school year and create lasting memories.
- Special Man and Special Women Stalls: An event dedicated to celebrating the special people in our children's lives. It fosters a sense of community and appreciation for these important figures.
Beyond the Events:
Beyond these annual highlights, FOPS has also played a significant role in supporting various school initiatives, including:
- The creation of a vibrant and educational science garden, providing a dedicated outdoor space for pupils to explore and experiment with scientific concepts.
