Friends of Drapers' Academy

26th September 2011

Friends of Drapers' Academy (FODA) was launched in the summer term welcoming parents and carers of current pupils to the Association as well as members of the local community. We hope that the establishing of this group will encourage closer links between parents, staff and the local community. Holding it's first such event last weekend, FODA supported the St Paul's Church community event in Peterfield Avenue.

The prime objective of FODA though is to support school activities and social events, as well as providing an opportunity to meet other parents and families, and be part of the wider Academy family. Our aims are not fundraising driven but more social and reflect the ethos of the Academy as a local school for local families.

To join FODA or find out more about their activities please contact Kathy Sweeney at ksweeney@drapersacademy.com who is acting Chairperson until a formal committee is established.
