FrOGS
We are the Friends and Relatives of Grangehurst School. FROGS is Grangehurst's interpretation of a Parent Teacher Association (PTA). Its role is to encourage closer links between home and school. PTAs are best know for their fundraising work, but they have a useful social function too. Fundraising events provide an opportunity for parents, staff and pupils to work together, with all money raised via various events being reinvested in the school on things such as equipment that has been requested by the children and their 'Wish Lists'. If you are interested in finding out more about FROGS then please feel free to contact a member of the committee, we are always looking for volunteers to help us run our events.
