PTFA

Welcome to the HI Park Primary PTFA section of our website

Who are we?

Hi Park Primary PTFA are a group of volunteer parents and teachers who fundraise to provide additional activities and equipment for the children at Histon & Impington Park Primary School (registered charity number 1096921).

Through our activities we also try to bring together families to create a community - any new suggestions for events are always welcome!

Fundraising activities include the summer fair, school discos and quiz nights. Resources and equipment funded by the PTFA include Times Table Rockstars, Skipping Workshops and Play Therapy.

In 2024, we helped Histon Impington Park Primary School purchase a new playground. We were able to do this due to fundraising across the year with various streams from Histon and Impington Feast and Fireworks, uniform sales, discos, and fairs.

In 2022, thanks to donations from the Histon and Impington Feast and Fireworks, the PTFA were able to fund new playground markings: https://www.hihub.info/news-in-brief/community-events-fund-playground-fun-at-park-primary/

Thank you to everyone for their ongoing support.
