• We're urgently looking for someone to take over this important role from the start of the next school year – and to shadow us next term so you're ready to hit the ground running. The role isn't too time-consuming and involves: Working with the parking and events team to check and confirm (automated) fund collection Paying a few bills and invoices (and bank checks) Funding teacher bids each term that help buy some amazing items for the children Providing a simple update each term on funds raised and spent (and for HMRC) All the systems and processes are already in place - and full support will be given for the handover. A basic understanding of accounts, spreadsheets and online banking helps You must be a parent of a current student We'd love to get someone lined up now so we can show you the ropes before the summer FoRTS makes a real difference to the school and our children - and we can't do it without volunteers. Thanks to our volunteers and the rugby parking we raise significant funds for the school and the treasurer plays a valuable role in helping with it all. If you're even slightly interested or want to find out more, please email the main school address and your email will be shared with the current treasurers – no commitment at this stage!

• Linked in to our World Book Day theme last week of 'Other Worlds', the lunchtime Book Club, run by Ms Richards, are reading Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones. In this beloved modern classic, young Sophie Hatter from the land of Ingary, catches the unwelcome attention of the Witch of the Waste and is put under a spell... You will have to read it yourself to find out more! KS3 Book Club has been incredibly popular with students and the purchase of books has been kindly supported by the Friends of RTS (FoRTS). #worldbookday2025 #lovereading #education #bookclub
