About Us
Friends of Lethbridge (FoL) is the name of the school's Parents' Association. We are a registered charity (registered charity 291895) and made up of volunteer parents/guardians who organise various events throughout the year, raising funds to provide additional resources and activities for Lethbridge Primary School in order to enhance the education of children who attend the school.
We regularly fund:-
- school trips which relate to the children’s project work.
- workshops run by external companies on topics from jungle animals to Roman centurions.
- performances at the school by visiting theatre companies.
Over recent years we have also funded a new stage for the school, climbing and play equipment for the playground, a set of iPad minis for use in the classroom and practical maths equipment for the whole school.
Our regular fundraising events include:
Along side these fundraising events, FoL organise a 'Mother's Day Wrap' giving the children of EYFS & KS1 a chance to choose and wrap a present for their Mum or guardian.
