The Parents' Association of Thornton College is called The Friends of Thornton, or FOT for short.
The Friends meet on the first Wednesday of each month during term time. They organise social events for parents and the Thornton Fete, raising significant sums of money each year for the School.
They have recently paid for new playground equipment for the Junior School and Nursery, a heat transfer machine for Ms Bone in the Art Department, and a new sound system and stage curtains for the Assembly Hall.
The Friends of Thornton organise our school Fete. The Thornton College Fete is one of the best in the country with thousands of visitors every year. This year the Fete is on Sunday June 15th and opens at 2pm. Please come along and join us. It is always a fantastic day out.
