Friends of Sharlston School (FOSS) is an informal group of volunteers, made up of parents and other family members, who help organise social events and fundraising for the pupils of our school and the local community.
The aim of Friends of Sharlston is to, along with staff, provide fun events for the school and the local community. These events include discos, film nights and other themed events, all in an effort to raise funds for the school and the children. The group is very informal, and meets several times in the year, with meetings usually lasting no longer than an hour. The group is always on the lookout for new members – if you are interested, come into the school office who will provide you the details you need.
