What do Friends of the School do?
The major aim of the Friends of the School (FOTS) is to foster a positive partnership between the school and home.
We are a group of parents from Rotorua Seventh-day Adventist School who want to support the running of our school in practical ways.
We organise school events, raise money and help create a strong school community.
We are always looking to recruit additional members to the committee and invite you to join! 
What is our role?
It is our role to support the school and teachers in matters outside of the curriculum such as organising fundraising for special projects (like the upgrade of the playground / sports equipment & uniforms,  co-ordinating events like lunchtime fundraisers (sausage sizzles, cookie/iceblocks), and basically having a better understanding of day to day life at school.
Who can be on the committee?
Any mum or dad, caregiver can join Friends of the School (FOTS) at any stage of their child's schooling. Being on the committee does not mean you are solely responsible for every fundraising venture that arises. We bring thoughts forward, discuss fundraising ideas and put our collective skills together to come up with some awesome ideas.

    Are you able to help us?

    We would like to have a ‘Friends of the Committee’ group that we can call on to help us out for some of the fundraisers we are doing this year.
    Please let us know where you are able to help. 
    Thank you! We will get in touch when the event is on
