Friends of SFIS

Friends of SFIS was set up as a charity to fundraise for South Farnborough Infant School. The Friends are made up of the school’s parents, guardians, families and staff who work as a Committee to raise money through events and other fundraising activities.

In recent years the money raised went towards a wide range of new books for the library, a new phonics scheme for the whole school, new Interactive White Boards for Key Stage One and Early Years learning resources and play furniture.  We also continued to subsidise school trips across all year groups when necessary.

We usually run a number of popular events throughout the year such as Elf Day, discos and the Summer Fair, to name but a few, as well as regular cake sales. We aim to make these events interesting and inclusive for all the children. We also hold regular book sales and host Quiz Nights when possible, for our wider school community.

We aim to meet regularly and are always looking for volunteers with fresh ideas and enthusiasm. Regular meetings are held locally or via Zoom. If you would like to be involved with the committee, please contact us on:

friendsofsfis@outlook.com

If you don't wish to be on the committee but would like to help out at any of the events, please do still get in touch.

Any questions, suggestions or feedback please contact a member of the Friends committee
