Welcome
Royal Russell School Parents' Association is known as the ‘1853 Society' – 1853 being the year the School was established.

The 1853 Society exists to provide closer links between home and school, and it is an excellent way to bring staff, parents and friends together socially. In brief, 1853 aim to promote a programme of fund raising and social events such as, the Christmas Fair, a quiz night, car boot sales, uniform sales and much more.

All parents or guardians of pupils and staff of the School are eligible to be members of the Association.

If you would like to know more about getting involved with our committee or have any ideas to share with us, please contact us at 1853society@gmail.com.

Role of the Committee
The Committee meet on a regular basis usually twice per term, with smaller working groups meeting as necessary to organise social events.
Our role is to:

• Support the School in all its endeavours and embrace the wider community
• To harness the skill base of the parent body to help achieve this aim through educational, fundraising and social events. 

Getting Involved
Offering to help before events or at other times during the year is invaluable. It doesn't matter if you can't help on a regular basis, or even if you can't come into school.  Much of the work can be carried out at home if thirty minutes is spared, for example, baking cakes or wrapping gifts.  We really couldn't achieve what we do without the unseen ‘army of help' that exists in school.
