What is Friends of Fairway?
Friends of Fairway (F.O.F) is a registered charity run by a group of Fairway parents. The aim of the group is to raise funds for Fairway Primary Academy to directly benefit all its pupils.
With government funding at a record low, we aim to enhance the learning experiences of all children at Fairway. Through our fundraising events such as School Disco’s, Seasonal Fayres and Fun Days – we help provide the school with the means to purchase new equipment, resources, and host specialist workshops onsite, to give all of Fairway’s children the best learning experiences possible.
Core group members
We have a core group of around 12 parents who through termly meetings and a WhatsApp group plan and organise school fundraising initiatives and events. Even though we have a core group, we welcome any ideas and suggestions from the rest of the school community too.

How can you help us?
We really hope that all parents, grandparents and carers will get behind us and support us as much as you are able to as everything raised by Friends of Fairway goes straight back into school to support all our children.
As well as supporting our fundraising events there are lots of other ways to help too including donating prizes, donating uniform, volunteering at events, manning stalls or joining our Core Group at out AGM, as we need more members! If you can help in any of these ways or any other way please email us via friends.of.fairway@outlook.com and if you’re on Facebook make sure you’re following the Friends of Fairway Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/fairwaypta
