FOBS

Our next event is "Break the Rules" day,
when the children can have fun with their appearance.

FOBS is a registered charity ( Registered Charity No. 1067838 ) which aims to enhance the school’s resources by raising funds for school equipment, activities and outings. Parents and teachers get together and organise social and fund-raising events throughout the school year. The events are varied and provide an opportunity for families to meet and have fun, whilst helping to support the school. In recent years FOBS has provided the school with a wide range of resources for each classroom, IT equipment and books.

FOBS is a wonderful opportunity for parents and teachers to work together and improve the resources that will help our children develop. New parents are always welcome to join and any ideas, help and assistance, even if you are not on the committee, are always welcome. We are a growing school but are still relativity small so all support is always much appreciated.

If you are interested in coming along, look at our school calendar page here  https://benington.herts.sch.uk/news-dates/term-dates/.  for meeting dates or contact the school.
