Did you know you’re already a member of our PTFA if you:
– have parental responsibility for a child currently at Ballycarrickmaddy;
– are a member of our Ballycarrickmaddy teaching staff;
– are a friend of our school community…
…and we’re very happy to have you on board!
Read on to find out what we do, who we are, and how you can get involved.
P7 Parents/Carers: thank you for all your support during your child’s BCM years!
Good News – we collect Terracycle & receive £1 per kg
Drop off your Pringles Cans (excluding lids), Hasbro Games, Air Fresheners, Home & Laundry Care packaging, your L.O.L. Surprise!™ products, packaging and accessories and your coffee bags (from beans/ground – not pods).
Just pop your empty recyclables into the collection boxes in the school porch. The rubbish we keep out of landfill and recycle together becomes raw materials used to create new products.
To find out more about Terracycle visit their website at www.terracycle.com
What we do
We raise funds to support our school to provide superb facilities and experiences to enable our children to thrive and enjoy learning in the Ballycarrickmaddy Primary community.
How we do it
We run fundraising events throughout the year – from student discos, to summer sports night, to Tea with Santa and, of course, the annual Christmas Jumper Day!
