Introducing the New PTA Team
Lucy Olesker (Chair)
Jessica Johnson – Hedgehog Class (Secretary)
"Hi everyone, I am Jessica and I am Max's mum in Hedgehog Class. I am very crafty and well organised, which I think are great qualities to bring to the PTA. I am also very passionate about the school and will always do my part to help make it the best it can be for our children."
Marie Marin la Meslée – Hedgehog Class (Treasurer)
"Bonjour! I'm Crispin's mum in Reception. I worked for many years in sports marketing, mainly in rugby, before moving into the charity sector, where I now provide consultancy in events, communications and fundraising. It was love at first sight with Danehill School – the people, the ethos and the location. Crispin has been thriving this year, and I want to help promote how Danehill is a wonderful school and community for our children."

Fundraising Goal 2026–2027
The PTA has set an ambitious fundraising target of £6,000 for the 2026–2027 academic year.
Funds raised will help enhance the school experience for all pupils through additional resources, enrichment opportunities and community events.
Fundraising Opportunities
Throughout the year we will be running a variety of fundraising activities, including:
- School fairs and community events
- Raffles
- Sponsored activities
- Seasonal celebrations
- Partnerships with local businesses
- Clothes recycling bin
- Easy fundraising and online giving opportunities
- 🛍️ Shop Online and Raise Money for Our School – at No Extra Cost!
For anyone who shops online (which is probably most of us!), this is a fantastic and effortless way to support our primary school.
Simply download the app, follow the quick setup instructions, and choose Danehill CE School PTA as your cause. You can also enable donation reminders, which will automatically notify you whenever you're visiting a participating retailer.
Every time you shop through a linked website, the retailer makes a donation to our school – at no extra cost to you!
It's an easy way to help us reach our fundraising goals and make a real difference for our children.
Thank you for your support! 💙
Further details will be shared throughout the year.
