'Friends' - PTFA
Friends of Ryhall Academy (FORA) are a group of parents & staff who all give our time on a voluntary basis to organise and run fundraising (and hopefully fun!) activities for those in our school community. Also known as the PTFA.
Did you know you can fundraise for the school from the comfort of your own home. If you do any online shopping, shop through the following site to earn money back for the school (at no extra cost to you). It really is that simple!

Friends have been responsible for a number of fantastic additional resources and opportunities for the children which, over the last two years, have included:
- A new outdoor trim trail and climbing wall
-
8 IPads and 3 charging banks for 30 IPads
-
Outdoor Play & Learning Equipment
-
£1000 for new Reading Books
-
Classroom Rugs for Year 1 & 2 Classes
-
Trikes for EYFS
-
Coloured sports vests for House Games/Competitions
-
Trips to the Key Theatre, Bourne Corn Exchange and Grantham Corn Exchange to watch their pantomimes - fun for all children (and staff!)
-
Music resources: Hand Bells & Ukuleles
-
Cookery equipment
-
Football Team Kit
In order to raise funds, FORA try to put on at least one event per term and run some very popular events for both children and adults; Discos, Christmas Market, May Festival and Film Nights to name just a few. They are always seeking new members, fresh ideas and more man-power.
