Who we are

Junior Events Team - JET and WISS - Willesborough Infant School Supporters

We are an active group of parents, grandparents and friends. We work throughout the year to put on social events and raise additional funding for the school. We are pleased to say that WISS and JET are now amalgamated! Having run so many wonderful events together for several years! Some of our events are for children, some are for grown-ups and some are for all the family.

What we do

Despite Covid Lockdowns, over the past 3 years we have run;

Christmas Elfridge shops for the children, a quiz night, Christmas and Bonfire Craft events, a Christmas light trail, summer fairs. We also support school managed activities such as Guys R Us, The Willesborough Flower Show, Doorstep Carols, Sports days and the children's Christmas parties.

When and where we meet

We usually meet every six weeks or so, in school, and we try to alternate holding our meetings during the school day or in the evenings.

This is to allow everyone a chance to attend some meetings. We have toys available for those that need to bring children with them. We do not expect everyone to attend meetings. All Minutes are available on the school website and can be emailed to you if you would like to be kept informed.

What the money is spent on

JET events raise funds to support the work that goes on in school.

Much of the money we raise is to provide all children in school with wonderful experiences which other schools ask parents/carers to pay for. We believe that all children at WJS should have the same opportunities.

In the last year, JET has paid for:
