Uplands Parent-Teacher Association<br />

All parents of children attending Uplands <strong>School</strong> are members of the Uplands<br />

Parent Teacher Association (UPTA), and are eligible to join the PTA Executive<br />

Committee.<br />

<strong>The</strong> UPTA has an active Committee and is an important part of the <strong>School</strong><br />

organisation. <strong>The</strong> UPTA is a forum where the views and concerns of all parents<br />

can be heard. UPTA’s opinion is valued by the <strong>School</strong> in the decision-making<br />

process and in day-to-day activities. This means all can contribute towards<br />

improving the quality of the education and the school experience of our students.<br />

In addition, the UPTA strives, through a variety of organised activities, to bring<br />

students, parents and teachers together. In doing so, it aims to develop a strong<br />

spirit of community in all those associated with Uplands <strong>School</strong>.<br />

More information on the UPTA is available in the UPTA Information Booklet,<br />

which will be sent to all parents applying to enroll their children at Uplands<br />

<strong>School</strong>. It has been written to inform parents of the UPTA activities and to assist<br />

you as members of the Uplands community.<br />

If you have any suggestions or ideas that you would like to share with us for<br />

future fund raising events, please speak to any member of the PTA or e-mail us<br />

at: info@uplands.org<br />
