Friends Association of Upton School

THE FRIENDS ASSOCIATION
The Friends Association comprises parents, teachers and other friends of the school who come together to organize educational, social and fund-raising functions. All parents who have pupils at the school are automatically members of the Association.

The school is always grateful for and appreciative of those parents who are prepared to invest some of their time in the many time consuming tasks which are a necessary part of school life.
