Friends of Three Rivers Academy

Three Rivers Academy has a very active PTA. We work closely with the school helping wherever and whenever we can for the ultimate benefit of our children and the local community.

To continue successfully we need the support of new parents to replace those that naturally leave us each year. So please don't dismiss us.

...and once you've signed up there's now the new easyfundraising app. Just search 'easyfundraising' in the app store.

Local Business Links

We benefit too from the support of many local businesses our main contributors being;

Robins & Day

James Neave

James Neave will also donate 10% of their fee to the PTA for any property sale where the instructing owner has children who attend the school. Just advise them when instructing... it's as simple as that!

We are always looking for ways to strengthen our links with the local community. Local business can make a huge difference to our fundraising efforts.

We are a registered charity which means we are able to receive charitable donations from both local and national companies. Do you work for a company that runs such a scheme? Do you work for a company that produce or sell items that we could auction or raffle?

If you do and you think they may be able to help us please email friendsofTRA@hotmail.com

Getting Involved

Moving up to secondary school is a big step for parents as well as our children, particularly if you have been actively involved in your junior school community. The PTA is an excellent way however to keep in touch with school life. We are a very friendly bunch of people and if you would like to find out more about us we would love to see you at one of our meetings.
