Our Parent Council
We are very lucky at West Barns to have a very active Parent Council who fundraise for the school, regularly run events for parents/carers and children and provide an essential service in promoting engagement with and working in partnership with our school for benefit of all our children.
Our Parent Council have their own web blog and Facebook page, where you will be able to find information on upcoming events, minutes, details about current members and most importantly, how you can get involved.
This year’s AGM will be held at 6pm, for a 6.15pm start at West Barns Primary School on Monday, 4th September 2023.
