Events for families
Discos, fairs, film nights and cake sales — fun for the children, and a chance for grown-ups to get to know each other.
Hillside Primary School PTA
Making brilliant things happen at Hillside
We’re the parents, carers and staff who raise money for the extras and bring our school community together — from discos and fairs to new playground equipment.
Hello!
What we do
Raise money
Everything we raise pays for extras that make school life richer: trips, books, equipment and treats.
Fund what matters
We ask the teachers what would make the biggest difference, fund it, and show you exactly where the money went.
Bring people together
Everyone’s welcome. Help for an hour, bake a cake, or just come along — it all counts.
Coming up
