About Us

Addington School Association is a registered charity (registration number 1088765) and supports the education of all pupils at Addington with the provision of additional equipment and facilities not normally provided by the Local Authority.  The Association also aims to provide social events that foster relationships between the families and others associated with the school. Examples of recent events include our Autumn and Summer Fayres and our always-popular Christmas Carol concert. 

Membership of the School Association Committee is open to all parents and carers of pupils at Addington and by invitation to staff members, and other persons and organisations in sympathy with Addington.

Over the years, Addington School Association has raised funds for minibuses, to purchase equipment for a sensory playground, and to provide Christmas reindeer experiences for pupils.  Our most recent minibus from the Lords’ Taverners was acquired with a self-help contribution from the Association of £25,000; money which was largely raised through our events, and we are now fundraising for another minibus to help keep external activities accessible to pupils.

The committee holds 1 daytime meeting (virtual) of one hour per month during term times - and members are generally available to help at Association events. If you are interested in joining the committee, then please contact us by email on AddingtonAssociation@gmail.com  

Chair: Nicola Perkins          Treasurer: Graham Turrell                  Secretary: Chris Bothwell
