FoEWS would like to thank the entire school community for all of their support over the past year. Thank you to everyone who came to Bingo, bought Wonka bars, took part in the 2026 Challenge, and raced their way through the Colour Run. Thank you so much to the staff. And an extra special thank you to everyone who volunteered to help us!
Over the course of the year we have raised an absolutely incredible £7,800. Money from this fund will now be spent on much-needed items including new play, outdoor and computer equipment.
The FoEWS team love to put on events for everyone to enjoy, but can only do so with help from our fellow parents - particularly those willing to give up their time to help organise and run them. We urge all our fellow carers to get more involved in FoEWS next year. You will help raise crucial funds which will really make a difference for our small village school, paying for items and experiences that the school budget will not stretch to. But you will also have fun, gain confidence, develop key organisational skills and make friends for life. Studies have also shown that parents being engaged in school life leads to positive outcomes for children - including better results, increased confidence and improved behaviour.
Every parent automatically becomes a member of FoEWS when their child joins the school. If you would like to become more hands on, please speak to your class rep - I can tell you it will be one of the best decisions you ever make.
We wish all families a very happy summer break, and hope that all children moving on from Eton Wick enjoy their new schools. We’d also like to give special thanks to the FoEWS volunteers who are moving on with them. Come back and see us at one of our events next year, you will always be welcome!
As my time as Co-chair comes to an end too, I would also like to personally thank my amazing FoEWS team for their hard work, dedication and incredible positive attitude. I can’t wait to see what you all get up to next year!
Lucy P, Co-chair
