FOMSS - Friends of Mount Street School

What is FOMSS?

FOMSS stands for Friends of Mount Street School and is our PTA (Parent Teacher Association), which is made up of a group of parents, carers and staff from the school. Everyone is welcome to join us and can get involved as much or as little as you want!

What do we do?

We raise money through running:

•          After school cafés
•          Pizza cafés
•          Christmas Fair
•          Summer Fair
•          Discos
•          Book Sale

The profit we make from these events goes back into the school:

•          It helps to enhance the school environment (e.g. caring for the animals)
•          It contributes to the cost of trips

Events are organised by a small group of parents, with a wider group helping out at events. We need more people to get involved in the organising and planning of events.

We meet regularly to talk about what we’ve done this year and plan future events. Please come along and support this vital part of Mount Street School. 

If you are interested in helping, please email us on fomss@mountstreet.plymouth.sch.uk or leave your details with Julie in the office.

Demi Clarke: Chair of FOMSS

Our AGM was on Monday 14th July 2025.

At the AGM we discussed plans for the year ahead: 

The Autumn Disco

Christmas fair

Cultural days- foods from different parts of the world

Mufti-days

Spring 'Glow' disco

Summer Fair

and providing teas and coffees for various events. 

We are also hoping to get a notice board to share the events timetable for the year and how we are doing in our efforts to raise funds.

We always welcome new ideas to raise funds for the children and provide entertaining events for yourselves and your children. We will be putting a suggestions box outside the main Reception for you to share your ideas for future events  or please contact us via the email address above.

This year the elected Committee are:

CHAIR: Demi Clarke

VICE CHAIR: Kelly Gynn

TREASURER: Jenny Ellery

SECRETARY: Magdalena Vlad

This year we are aiming to raise money for school trips foreach class.

Thank you for all your support so far this academic year and we look forward to putting on many more events and your continued support next year.
