Friends of Rhiwbeina (also known as "FoR") is a "Friends" Association supporting Rhiwbeina Primary School.

Our mission is to provide extra funds for the school, and to create a community of parents that demonstrates the values incumbent in the school.

Think of FoR as enabling the school to be "better, faster".  Tax will pay for most things, but funds have to be prioritised. 

FoR funds enable the school to renew, replace or upgrade facilities sooner, and enable it to adopt newer initiatives earlier.

Our recent investments have been focussed on the junior playground scheme and we hope to see the completion of this in the 2010-2011 school year.

FoR also provides funds for facilities that benefit parents directly, such as the tarmac path around the nursery playground. 

We are also very aware of the school's motto "TEAM - Together, Everyone Achieves More". 

It is only by working in partnership with the leadership of the school, the teaching and non-teaching staff and the governors that we can run the events and activities that we do.
