Orleans Park Friends

We would like to extend a warm welcome to Orleans Park Friends (OPF), the Parent-Teacher Association of Orleans Park School.

We create opportunities for all families, teachers and pupils to come together as well as raise funds for the school to enrich our children's lives during their time at Orleans Park.

Our biggest annual events are the school Fireworks Display (November) and St Margaret's Fair at Moormead Park (July). These are extremely popular community events as well as significant fundraisers for our school, and we partner with many local businesses and schools to make them such uplifting experiences. Last year, we also hosted a "Curry & Quiz Night" in November.  Alongside these big community events we also run second hand uniform sales throughout the school year.

We also take advantage of our proximity to RFU's Twickenham Stadium in providing Rugby Parking to paying visitors at weekends on major match days.

In recent years the funds raised via OPF events have purchased a new school minibus and rowing machines, a new grand piano, established a school newsroom and news report team, facilitated extracurricular trips and events for students. OPF have also substantially contributed to refurbishing particular areas of the school such as the new Astro pitch, a recording studio for the Music Department and a sprung floor for the Drama Studio. 

How can you support us?

We thrive because of the collaborative energy of families and teachers working together to create fun events and raise vital funds. All families and teachers are welcome to attend our meetings and there are many ways, big and small, to get involved. 

We are always open to new ideas and especially volunteers to get involved. Come and join one of our meetings to find out more. Meeting dates are advertised via school WhatsApp groups and on the school website.

Second Hand Uniform

Our Orleans Park Friends Uniform team run regular second-hand sales of OP logo uniform items at the school to raise funds that benefit all students.

Uniform sales are held regularly at the start of each Autumn and Spring half term, on either a Wednesday evening or a Friday afternoon. The dates and times are communicated through a letter from the school. We also support our new Year 7 families with a sale at the Induction Event in the Summer term before they start. 

Donations of good quality, clean Orleans Park logo uniform items can be left at School Reception during school hours, labelled as "Donations". We cannot accept grey trousers or white shirts as we don't have the space - these should be donated to textile banks.

We always welcome new volunteers to join our friendly team to help sort or sell donated uniform items. Click the link below to email the OPF Uniform team.
