FONES (Friends of North Elmham School) has been operating successfully over many years, as a PTA (Parents Teachers Association) where parents and Teachers get together to fundraise for the School.
Thousands of pounds have been raised over the years, and put to many good uses including building a new indoor library and an outside reflection area, helping fund school trips, buying new staging for School productions, and helping revamp the Key Stage 1 outside area, as well as donating money towards school resources.
FONES has a committee of nine – meeting twice every half term at the School. Our School representative is Tracy Billman.
Chair – Sharon Phillips 01362 668866
Treasurer – Bev Marshall
Secretary – Debbie Eusden
As part of the year-round fundraising FONES sell ice-creams and ice-lollies (50p each) every Friday after School (from April through to October). During the rest of the year the activity changes to cake baking and selling (50p each), again, every Friday after School.
Other events are organised through the course of the year and these are publicised around the village - everyone is very welcome!
