Brunel Friends Association was founded in September 2008 after a few years without a PTA.

With the newly formed committee there have been several fantastic events this year, including Hunt the Issy Christmas stocking filler evening, Quizzes, Disco's and Car Boot Sales.

Last year's Summer Fair incorporated a visit from the Den Building people from the Eden Project. Despite the rain and having to get everyone into the hall, this event raised nearly

£2, 000 for the school.

Regular car boot sales are held on site throughout the summer months. We also have a fantastic second hand uniform stall - donations gratefully received.

This year the BFA have donated Study Packs to Year 6 leavers and new book bags for the Reception children starting in September.

For more information on the Brunel Friends Association please pop in to the school and ask for our leaflet. We also have a fantastic Facebook group. Our BFA committee members are as follows:
