Friends of Sele First School
WHAT IS FRIENDS OF SELE FIRST SCHOOL?
All families are automatically members of the Friends of Sele First School (FoSFS) when their child joins the school. Our team is about much more than simply fundraising. Our events are a great way to bring staff, parents and friends together socially in support of the school. You can also join our Facebook group to find out more - 'Friends of Sele First School'.

OUR LATEST NEWSLETTER
Friends of Sele First, who raised an incredible total of over £7000 last year. This fundraising was solely due to the hard work, time and effort of our volunteers along with the goodwill and support of our community. We are so very grateful.
In a recent meeting the ‘Friend‘s’ discussed supporting the purchase of new IPads for school, a benefit to all children in school, as well as funding books for the libraries, equipment for outdoors and many other things.
There are so many ways in which you could support the Friends of Sele First School and it doesn’t involve attending lots of meetings! We welcome new and creative ideas, suggestions of events that we have never done and we are willing to try out new ways of doing things. We really need as much help as possible to continue fundraising, support our positive school community and also create memorable experiences for our children.
Please read the newsletter below for further information and details about how to make contact,
