Parents’ Association Update – JUNE 2024

 

Our purpose

School fees and government funding alone are insufficient for the adequate resourcing of our school, therefore parents are encouraged to make a commitment to the school by assisting with volunteering and support with fundraising efforts. The school relies on the efforts of the PA and school community to ensure the school operates efficiently, continues to offer a high standard of education and has the best possible resources for the children.

Sponsors

We are fortunate to partner with a range of local businesses that sponsor the school whether it be raffle prize donations, equipment/resources donations or becoming a Major Sponsor. These contributions make a considerable difference to our fundraising efforts which are put toward much-needed resources for the school. If your workplace or business is interested in supporting St Mark’s school, please reach out to us on pa@saintmarks.school.nz to explore our range of sponsorship opportunities.
