Parents Association Of Maria Konopnicka Polish Saturday School Willesden Green (UK, 1127089) Browse events

We are an independently run Saturday ethnic minority school. The school was founded by parents and continues to be run by parents of children attending the school. It has now been in existence for over 55 years holding lessons on Saturday mornings between the hours of 9 am through to 1 pm. The school takes boys and girls from nursery age (3,5) up to A level examination standard, with the school roll currently standing at around 450 pupils. The school was set up to fulfill two main functions. To help parents teach their children the Polish Language. To provide the children with knowledge about their roots. This is promoted through the teaching of history, geography of Poland along with Polish literature. We also try to ensure that the children are aware of Polish traditions and culture , as well as receiving spiritual and moral guidance. The School belongs to the parents and is run by a committee elected annually from amongst the parents of children attending the school. It is run on a charitable basis with all teaching services being provided by volunteers. These volunteers give up their Saturdays to help the children, receiving only a nominal honorarium for their time and effort. The school is financed entirely from the parents resources, the school receives no funding. The main source of income to cover running costs comes from fees the parents pay. The committee tries to keep the level of fees as low as possible taking into consideration that a lot of the families are recent emigres. The running costs & fees are finely balanced. The school is currently one of the largest Polish Saturday Schools. It is achieving high examination results in Polish language nationally. The Governing Body strives to improve operating procedures to cater for growing numbers of pupils by organizing fund raising activities throughout the year and looks for sponsors for specific purchases.

UPKEEP OF NEW CRICKET NETS Now that we have completed construction of the new nets facility, we have to turn our minds to the eventual upkeep. Repair/replacement of the carpets and nets and re-levelling of the sub-surface is going to be very expensive over time, and no-one gives grants for maintenance! We have to find this money within the Club. Rather than wait till the need arises, we intend to gradually build up a fund to finance maintenance. We will try not to have to increase Membership fees to do this. So we will be extremely grateful for donations, either one-off or on a regular (direct debit ) basis. Just click on "Make a donation" on the right of this page to proceed.   Thank you! Graham Jones Chairman
