Castledawson Primary School has a very active and enthusiastic Parent and Teacher Association. The aims of the Association are to promote the school in the community by organising events and to raise funds to support various curricular initiatives and projects. In recent years they funded materials such as reading books to supplement our reading schemes, 6 new laptops, signage/ gates for our school premises and the installation of wifi for our school so our iPads would function effectively. This year our PTA purchased outdoor play equipment for our senior playground and digital equipment for our assembly hall as well as 4 new ipads. All these resources were a wonderful asset to our school and were greatly appreciated by staff and pupils. The PTA are invaluable to our school and we benefit greatly from their hard work and commitment.

A variety of activities are planned every year and this term they are organising our annual Fireworks Display/ Craft Fayre in the Autumn Term which draws families and friends of the school from Castledawson and the wider community. Other events such as our Valentines Disco, Table Quiz and Coffee Morning are also organised by the PTA.

The Parent's Association Committee are grateful for the support of all parents. If you are a parent and would like to be more actively involved in planning and helping out at various events, please speak with Mrs Johnston or any member of the PTA.
