FoGS expression of interest form

FoGS is the Parent, Teacher Association of George Spicer School. It is a group of parents and staff who support the school by organising and running events to raise funds as well as building the school community.
Since 2019, almost £70,000 from FoGS has been spent across the school.
The current Chair, Vice-Chair and Treasurer will be standing down at the AGM in April 2023, and without new volunteers, FoGS cannot continue.

Thank you for opening this form, our aim is to identify willing parents, carers or grandparents who might be interested in fulfilling all or part of one of the Committee Roles or becoming a regular helper. There will be a chance to find out more information at a drop in session after school (3.20pm-4pm at Kimberley Gardens) on Thursday 26th January.
