Welcome to the Immanuel College Parent-Staff Association.

Many of you will be aware of the efforts made by the committee members on your behalf and will have often seen them in action at our social and fund-raising events as well as in supporting roles at the various school events, including but not exclusively the year-group meetings, new parents' evening and also at the Open Day.

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 students 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.

Recent Events

Earlier this month we had a trip to the Olympic Village. Our tour guide was Rachel Kolsky. We left Immanuel College by coach and started our tour with a visit to Stratford where the area has been transformed from a disused industrial area into the Olympic park. We continued on foot to a viewing area where we saw the completed Olympic Stadium, Aquatic Centre and the Arcelor Mittal Orbit Tower. It was a very enjoyable and informative trip.

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.
