Parent Staff Association (PSA)

A message from Annette Koslover (Co-Chair, Immanuel PSA):  

Welcome to the Immanuel College Parents Staff Association for 2009/2010. I am delighted to welcome our new members who have just joined the Immanuel College family and saddened that other stalwarts of the PSA have moved on as their children have left Immanuel College.  My sincere and grateful thanks go to everyone who has helped on the PSA over the past year.

Appointments

I am delighted to tell you that Jacqui Chody, a tireless and dedicated member of the PSA over the last few years, and I will be Co-Chairs of the PSA this year. We have some exciting plans, which are already well under way to bring you interesting and enjoyable social events.

We look forward to hearing from you with your ideas, information and queries relating to PSA matters and we can be contacted via the email addresses at the bottom of the page.

It is important to be aware that matters relating to individual pupils' education or other administrative issues must be directed to College staff in all instances.

The PSA would like to thank Solly Abraham, a long-serving member and former chair of the PSA and who has served as Parent Governor for the last two years, who is stepping down from this role. Ruth Hoyland is the new Parent Governor.  Ruth can be contacted via email (RuthHoyland@gmail.com) or through the school office

PSA Funds
 
The funds we raise are used to provide additional amenities for all the pupils in the school and we are all very proud of both the IT and fitness suites, both of which were made possible by the PSA through your generous support.   We have funded additional equipment for the Mathematics and Jewish Studies Departments and provided funds for a couple that will be starting their married life in Poland and whom the Immanuel pupils joined at their engagement party on their trip to Poland last year.  The PSA also makes funds available for the Sixth Form Poland trip through the Shryn Blank Memorial Fund. This allows us to offer assisted places to children who would otherwise be unable to participate.

The PSA is not just about raising funds. It is also about enabling all the parents to have the opportunity to get to know each other and socialise, to promote the high ideals of our school beyond the school gates and much, much more. So please continue to support us so that we can continue to support you.

Contact Us

If you have any ideas, comments or concerns that are of general importance to all parents, pupils, staff, or all three, or wish to have more information about any forthcoming PSA event, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you very much, and we look forward to yet another wonderful year at Immanuel College.
