PARENT TEACHER ASSOCIATION (PTA)
Matua School is fortunate to be supported by an active parent group. The PTA has contributed funds for a hall kitchen refurbishment, pool upgrade, ICT equipment, curriculum resources and website redevelopment by various fundraising events throughout the year. These include the Matua Gala, Annual PTA Quiz night, Entertainment book sales, and school disco.
The PTA also organise and sell second hand uniforms through the “Second hand Uniform Shop” in the hall.
Second hand Uniform Shop (back left corner of school hall)
Open: Wednesday 2.30pm – 3.00pm

Meetings are informal and all are welcome. Joining the PTA is a great way to meet new people, keep up to date with school activities and get involved in your child’s education. New fundraising ideas are always encouraged!
