Who are the PFA?
In 2014 I returned to Christchurch after six years away; finding myself in a new
community, I wanted to meet new people. I remember Paula Sheldon (Head of the Junior
School at the time) asking me to join her at the next Parents' and Friends' Association
meeting, this is where it all started and I haven’t looked back! A year later I became the
President and over the past three years I have came to know a fantastic group of people
who are always willing to help out at the many functions the school holds.
Our main focus is to support the St Margaret’s community, mainly by providing
manpower where it’s needed, helping at fundraising events and social functions –
there’s never a dull moment!
We are always looking for new members and if you would like to meet new people,
love helping out at functions and would like to be part of a fantastic group, come and
join us. We meet twice a term on a Tuesday and all information can be found on the
school website.
