The 2020/2021 school year has just begun and will no doubt present pupils, teachers and the wider school community with many new challenges. The PTA, as the fundraising arm of the Parent Council, will continue to offer funding and support where needed and we look forward to meeting many of the parents, old and new, over the course of the year.
Lenzie Academy PTA (formerly known as FOLA) is an informal and friendly fundraising group which has been running since April 2010 and has raised the staggering sum of £61,500 which has bought football and rugby strips, cameras for the Arts dept, contributed to the school minibus and many other things which help to support pupils in every year of Lenzie Academy. We meet once a month to share fundraising ideas and plan future events.
