Friends of Douglas Park
Who are we?
We are a group of parents, teachers and supporters of Douglas Park School who meet monthly. New members are always welcome.
What do we do?
The aim of the Friends of Douglas Park School (FoDPS) is to support a positive relationship between the school and the community by organising social events and fundraising activities.
Fundraising is an integral part of FoDPS. We endeavour to supplement the schools existing funds thereby providing an opportunity to purchase resources and equipment for the school that otherwise the school may not obtain.
How do we do it?
We organise fundraising activities of all sizes from selling ice blocks on mufti days to the annual Food Fair. We also organise, staff and manage events such as the Easter egg raffle, the chocolate sale and the sausages at Bangers and Maths evenings.
What have we done?
Our fundraising has enabled the school to purchase:
· kapa haka uniforms
· the library deck
· playground markings
· the hockey turf
How can you help?
We welcome any new members to our monthly meetings. The dates of these will be detailed on this page and in the school newsletter. We also welcome volunteers who aren’t able to attend meetings but are happy to be called on for an extra pair of hands when needed.
If you would like to contact us you can send an email to one of the following email addresses:
Amy Williams - amywilliams@douglaspark.school.nz
Olivia Walsh - owalsh@douglaspark.school.nz
Sally Hunter - shunter@douglaspark.school.nz
We look forward to hearing from you!
