The Waimairi PTA are a friendly bunch of parents and staff who are responsible for fundraising activities and community events which benefit our children and the school, and help bring our school community together.
We meet once a month to share ideas, organise events, and have some fun along the way. Although we look like a rather large group, many hands make light work and it means we all help spread the load. Other than our monthly meetings, it is entirely up to you how much or how little time you volunteer (there is no pressure to take on any extra jobs) and there is a variety of smaller jobs, some during the day, some in the evenings, or even some that can be done in your own time at home, if you do decide you'd like to do a little bit more. If you have any questions please feel free to ask any of our lovely committee members listed below, or contact us on the phone numbers listed on our home page or get in touch via our Waimairi School Facebook page.
We also have a Friends of the Committee group - this is for those who are keen to help support the PTA but are unable to commit to our regular meetings. The PTA get in touch from time to time as needed to ask for help with specific things (e.g. baking, selling raffle tickets etc). If this sounds more like you, please get in touch with Sheryl or Andrea via the phone numbers on our welcome page.
