Friends of Borrow Wood
Friends of Borrow Wood School (FOBWS) is Borrow Wood School's PTA. We are a group of volunteers that meet every half term to arrange events to raise money and build community at the school, you don't have to be a parent or teacher - grandparents, child minders or friends are all welcome!
Whether you can attend every meeting, could volunteer at an event or have links with local businesses that could support us - we would love to hear from you, please contact us via the school office if you are interested in getting involved.
