The FSK is a volunteer group fundraising to advance the education of the pupils. Charity no. 1122599

The purpose of this page is to enable more effective communication with parents/guardians about the fund raising activities of the FSK. All parents/guardians are actively encouraged to come along and get involved at our informal get togethers. We would really welcome your support as our numbers are small and our school needs all the help it can get. Please note that this page is not a place to air

your grievances with any particular person, teacher or the school. All issues of a school nature should be taken up with the school directly. Any communications not adhering to this may be removed and the user banned.

This event is hosted by Friends of St Katharine's School (FSK), registered charity 1122599. All proceeds raised from our fundraising go to St Katharine's C.E (V.A.) Primary School.

⭐️ FSK Funding - FACE family advice ⭐️
This membership provides all parents and carers of St Katharine’s School with FREE, unlimited access to the Let’s Face regular parent talks via the Zoom platform (usually £24 each).

The sessions are live, interactive sessions and attendees can have their cameras on or off and they can choose to chat and interact with the facilitator or just listen.

To access the FREE sessions, please use the code issued via school email again today.

The code cannot be used for any other FACE services or shared with parents or staff from other schools.

Please find attached January’s timetable.

⭐️ How to use the code ⭐️
Visit the PARENTS page of the FACE website:

https://www.facefamilyadvice.co.uk

Click through the booking calendar to find a date and time that suits you.

At the payment stage of booking, enter the code where it says ADD PROMO CODE. This will reduce the price from £24 to £0.

Links to recordings of the talks are available for 48 hours after the session. If you cannot make a live session, book on and then email to request the recording link.

⭐️ Important ⭐️
Please avoid booking the FREE sessions for parents, as these are for parents from schools that have not purchased the discount code. They are shortened versions of the regular talks which you now have free access to.

The code can only be used for Parent Talks and cannot be shared with parents from different schools. Improper use can result in immediate code cancellation for the whole school.
