About us

Who we are

Friends of Plymtree School, or F.O.P.S., is a charitable organisation made up of staff and parents who meet regularly and organise fundraising events, providing additional funds for the school.

Our committee

FOPS is run by a committee of volunteers, the parents and teaching staff who give their time to plan events and look after the money we raise. We couldn’t do it without them. New faces are always welcome, however much or little time you have.
