FOCSA (Friends of Cockfield School Association) was formed around 22 years ago. The aims of FOCSA are to raise funds to provide those ‘little extras’ which include equipment and activities for the children not covered within the main school budget.
Our many successful fund-raising activities have included ladies pamper evenings with fashion shows, sponsored walks, table top sales, plant sales, sports day fairs and stalls at Cockfield Fete and St Peters Church Fair.
In recent years FOCSA funding has paid for many things including:
- Christmas presents for children
- A visit from a travelling pantomime
- A samba drumming day
- A theatre workshop
- A trolley for cooking classes
- Trophies for sports days
- Christmas present for each classroom
- School book bags for each child
- Coaches for various school trips & annual school outing
- End of year free disco
The success of the fund-raising is only made possible by help and support of parents and friends, enabling us to improve the facilities that benefit our children and future children. New members are vital to ensure that this valuable support continues for many years to come.
