About us

We exist to support the school in raising additional funds to support the education of our children. A few of the key projects delivered over recent years includes improving and upgrading the IT equipment within the classrooms, refurbishing our beautiful school library, funding outdoor enhancements such as the forest school, pond area and allotments, and most recently replacing the outdoor play equipment for both playgrounds, which was a huge undertaking.

Equally importantly, we plan and arrange events and activities for pupils, parents and friends of the school to enjoy.

All parents are automatically members of the PTA, and are invited to attend the PTA meetings, or to get involved in any way you can. We know that everyone has different commitments and time pressures, and there are many ways you can help us to support our school.

Online Shopping- Easy Fundraising

Whenever you shop online, Easy Fundraising generates funds for school, at no cost to you. You just need to take a few minutes to set it up!

To set this up, go to the following page:

Easy Fundraising Set Up

You’ll find us under ‘Buckingham Primary School PTA’. 

Once you have downloaded the app, you can install a widget which pops up whenever you are on an eligible website and asks if you want to activate the donation. It’s brilliantly easy to use, and the amounts we can generate are really worthwhile, for example 5% through Expedia, 4% through booking.com, 3% through H&M and New Look, 5% through JD Sports…. These amounts mount up significantly, so it would be fantastic to have your support too!

Once you’ve downloaded the app and set yourself up, click here to set up the Donation Reminder widget: Donation Reminder

Easy2Name

This is a great site for ordering name labels for school clothing.

If you need to buy labels to name your child’s new uniform, consider ordering them via Easy2Name. They will donate 20% to our PTA when you order through them, as well as giving you free delivery.

Simply go to easy2name.com and use the code FR-BUCKINGHAMPS-94 at the check-out.

Bags to School

We arrange collections every term, which is a great way of raising funds for the school, as well as motivation for a good clear out!  Click on the link below to see a list of what can be donated.

Second Hand Uniform

We provide a service for good quality second hand uniform. Please drop off anything (especially logoed items) in good condition at the school office, FAO the PTA. If you need something, please email, and we can check the stock

Bonus Ball Lottery

We run a weekly Bonus Ball lottery, with the new year starting in September. You simply pick a number from 1-59 and it costs £1 per week. If your ball is drawn in Saturday’s Lotto, then you win £20! If you’d like to reserve a number for this year’s draw, please email pta@buckinghamprimary.com. Last year’s lottery was lots of fun, and also raised over £800 for the school, which goes straight into our outdoor play equipment fund.
