The Beacon has a very active Beacon Parents’ Society (BPS), which aims to provide fun and inclusive social activities for our parents and boys, while at the same time raising funds for both the School (equipment and resources) and local charities. The local charities our BPS are supporting this year are The Theatre Shed, Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity and YoungMinds.
The BPS Committee comprises approximately 18 parents representing all year groups and includes some members of staff.
Recent projects that the Beacon Parents’ Society has funded include:
The Committee organises a variety of activities and events for the whole Beacon Community throughout the school year, from Quiz Nights, Cake Sales, Social Evenings and a Summer Ball for parents and staff, through to Discos and other activities for the boys, plus a Christmas Fair, a Camp Night and Summer Swim Club for everyone. For this Autumn term, the committee are organising various virtual events in line with COVID guidelines.
If you would like to come and join this friendly committee and have fun, whilst getting involved in the life of the School, please contact our BPS co-chairs, Janelle Stevenson and Dipika Patel, on bps@beaconschool.co.uk.
