Welcome to the Callington Primary School PSA

Callington Primary School Parent and Staff Association (PSA) has been an integral part of the school community for many years. In its time the PSA has raised thousands of pounds, which has been spent on equipment and resources to enhance our children’s education experience and the school’s facilities. 

Our PSA is about much more than simply fundraising.  The PSA exists to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring staff, parents and friends together socially in support of the school, working towards a common goal.  It is fun too! With the continued support of parents and staff, our PSA has always succeeded in its efforts. All parents and members of the school community are encouraged to get involved, even if they only have a small amount of time available. 

How involved do you want to be?

There are three levels of commitment with which you can be involved in Callington Primary School PSA:

1. Be an officer of the PSA. i.e. Chair, Secretary or Treasurer
2. Be a committee member, attend meetings, contribute ideas and help with the organising of events
3. Be a volunteer helper, who doesn’t necessarily attend meetings, but can be called upon to help out at certain events
    

If you would like to join the PSA please come along to our next meeting held in the school staffroom. The dates and times are always advertised in the School Newsletter.

If you would like to be a volunteer member please leave your contact details e.g. mobile phone number or email address with the school secretary or another committee member. Contact will usually be in the form of an email or text message. Alternatively you can just volunteer to help at an event by approaching a member of the PSA we are always grateful for offers of help!
