We are so fortunate in Bangor Central Integrated Primary School to have an amazing PTFA. Our PTFA are committed to fundraising for our school by organising exciting fundraising opportunities! These events are always lots of fun for all involved, adults and children alike. Funds raised are invested directly into our school and benefit all of our children. Most recently our PTFA have purchased twenty-one state-of-the-art Promethean ActivPanels, meaning that every class in the school has one of these amazing devices! They have also raised money to purchase class iPads, Accelerated Reader books and kits for our sporting teams.

Bangor Central's PTFA are also an important example of how we value our partnership with parents, carers and families in school. They provide support to parents, keeping them updated on school events via our PTFA WhatsApp groups and offering refreshments at school events such as parent workshops. We are currently keen to set up a new PTFA committee and are recruiting for the roles of Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer.

Our PTFA also run UniCycle, a school uniform shop for pre-loved school uniform at very reasonable prices. A pop-up shop usually runs once per half term.

School coats are £2 each and all other uniform items are £1 each. We currently have a few non uniform winter coats at £5 each. If you wish to donate old uniform items you can hand them into school reception or drop them to us when the shop is open.

If any parent would like to help with running the shop, sorting stock etc, we would be very grateful for any assistance. Get in touch with a member of the PTFA or let your class rep know.
