FOLMS Quiz and Movie Night - Friday 5th March 2010
This was another fun and well-attended evening with more than 120 parents, children and staff taking part. Well done and thank you to all the FOLMS parents and school staff who made it possible especially Anthony Stevens for being an excellent quiz-master and the Glanville family for donating all the popcorn and the films. Early indications suggest several hundred pounds were raised. Congratulations to the winning team and to all the raffle winners!
Y5/6 Choral festival at Eton College
Thank you to all the FOLMS members who attended this superb concert on Thursday 4th March. Members enjoyed a delicious lunch with the CEO of CfBT Education Trust and also helped as stewards. A memorable afternoon!
Yellow Moon Craft and Activities Catalogue - buy great children's giffts and toys and raise money for FOLMS at the same time! Catalogues have now been sent home. This is a great way that we can raise money for the school. Orders should be placed online or by phone directly with Yellow Moon. Please use the LMS source code of SLA1167 to ensure FOLM's benefits from the cashback scheme.
AGM - Monday 18th January 2010The first AGM was a great success with over 100 parents and staff attending along with the Assistant Director of Education at CfBT Education Trust. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn about the work of FOLMS to date and to hear about our exciting plans for the future, including the March Quiz and Movie Night, Open Day in June and the new adventure playground that is being built in April.
Many thanks to Mrs Field and Mrs Rumney for organising the delicious cheese and wine - a lovely winter warmer!
Autumn Disco - Friday 20th November 2009
The first FOLMS social event was the Autumn Disco at Iver Village Hall on Friday 20th November 2009. It was a great success with over 100 children attending along with dozens of parents and friends. The night raised over £400 for FOLMS which will help fund the new low-level activity playground planned for the school in 2010. Well done and thank you to all the parent volunteers who made it such a success.

HISTORY OF FOLMS
In September 2009 we formed a new PTA called 'The Friends of The Langley Manor School' or FOLMS. The main aim of FOLMS is to be a Friend of the Langley Manor School and to do three main things:
- to provide an open, positive and constructive line of communication between home and school
- to act as a fund-raising body for the school
- to organise fun events for children, staff and parents
