Friends of Heycroft
Welcome to Friends of Heycroft Primary School
Friends of Heycroft Primary School (FOHPS) plays a vital part in the school’s community with all parents/legal guardians of pupils and teachers and staff working at Heycroft Primary School automatically being members of the association.
Established in September 2023, the main aims of FOHPS are to fundraise for the school by providing fun and exciting events including our infamous Fireworks Display for our children and community.
These events have a good track record of not only raising money for the school to further improve the learning experience and wellbeing of our children but also allows the school to be at the heart of its community through using local businesses and suppliers for our events.
When your child joins the school, if you do not wish to play an active role in the day-to-day running of the association, please note that you do not have to but as a member you will still have the right to vote each year as to who the committee members are and at any time can be a volunteer to plan and support events or put forward fund-raising ideas.
All members of the association can attend the FOHPS Annual General Meeting (AGM) which takes place at the beginning of each school year and/or attend our monthly open committee meetings which take place on the 2nd Monday of every month in the school hall at 6pm.
To keep you updated on upcoming events and meetings, FOHPS features in the school’s weekly newsletter and on Class Dojo. You can also find details on this page as well as following our social channels Facebook and Instagram.
We are always looking for volunteers, ideas and/or donations. If you would like to learn more about FOHPS, please email us at foh@heycroft.southend.sch.uk or take a look at our FAQs document.
We thank you in advance for your support in creating a community for our children to thrive in.
