QASPA
Every parent of a Queen Anne's student is a member of the Queen Anne's Parents' Association (QASPA). The QASPA Committee is a friendly and active group of parents and staff that organises events that bring the school community together, raise funds and promote the school.
The aims of QASPA are broadly:
· Family
To bring the girls, parents and staff together and help contribute to the sense of community within the school.
· Fun
To enjoy a wide range of activities.
· Fundraising
To fund welcome ‘extras' for the benefit of the whole school and to raise money for selected charities.
