We are a group of parents and staff from The Elms who:
Organise interesting and fun social events for The Elms children, parents, staff and friends such as pupil discos; parent events and run the ‘Nearly New Uniform Shop’ that provides a great source of low-cost school uniform. There are year group class representatives that liaise with parents and the PSA to promote events and enable parents to contact each other.

Nearly New Uniform:
The ‘Nearly New’ Uniform shop provides a great source of low-cost Elms uniform and a way for parents to sell on uniform that no longer fits. The shop is run by parent volunteers.
To book your appointment slot to visit the shop, please contact Charlie on 07590 759 230.
Items for sale:
The Nearly New Shop will accept your clean items in good condition for sale. All items should be bagged and labelled, with a completed ‘Items For Sale Form’ enclosed inside the bag. The price is set at half of the original purchase price or less, depending on the condition. If no label is present the items will be determined to be a donation to the PSA.
Labelled bags can be left at the shop during opening hours, with Charlie at the school gate, or alternatively they can be left at the Lower or Upper School Reception.
Fundraising:
Supporting the school
The PSA uses some of the profits made to support the school in non-academic activities, usually by donating equipment or sponsoring extra-curricular activities.
Examples of these include infant playground equipment for the Lower School, including bikes and trikes and a playground track, Elms Gazebo’s and an extensive range of Lego for a dedicated After School Club. In recent years the Lower School has benefited from a new age relevant library.
