St. Matthew’s PTA (Parent Teachers Association) are a strong, enthusiastic, hard-working team of parents and teachers of St. Matthew’s Primary School who give up a little of their time during the school year to help us fundraise, to make a real difference to our children’s school life by providing events, equipment and experiences for all our children which could not be otherwise be provided from the normal school budget.

What We Do:

The PTA organise various fundraising and social events throughout the school year which raise much-needed funds for the school.  They also help with charitable work and assist at a variety of school events, some of them also give up their time and are invaluable school volunteers.

They provide facilities or equipment which support the school and therefore advance the education of the children.

Assist with financial support for school trips and other special events.

• Coaches/minibuses to events
• Spanish lessons for all pupils P1-P7

Where and When Do We Meet:
