FOBSA - Who are we?
The Friends of Bagshot School Association (FOBSA) is the school’s Parents’ Association. It is a registered charity whose key aim is to raise funds that enhance the range of opportunities available to the children at Bagshot School. e.g. the purchase of books, IT equipment, playground furniture and those things that normal central funding doesn’t cover. The funds raised by FOBSA make a significant contribution to the ‘enrich’ part of the school’s Mission Statement, ‘Educate, Enable, Enrich’.

What is a "Friend"?
Anyone can be a ‘Friend’ – anyone who takes an interest in the school. Some of the 'friends' are parents, grandparents, teachers or ex-pupils or even local residents – in fact anyone who cares for the well-being of the school. A parent of a child in the school is automatically a member of FOBSA and doesn't need be on the committee to attend the meetings or to be generally involved.

What sort of things do we do?
Anything which raises additional funds for the school and creates a sense of community for the families – and of course is fun!! FOBSA hold annual events such as the Christmas Fair, Summer Family Day, Quiz Night and Curry Night as well as three party nights across the year. You can visit the events page on FOBSA's dedicated website at http://fobsa.wordpress.com/events/to see a list of typical activities that are run across the year.
