Every parent of a Queen Anne’s student is a member of the Queen Anne’s School 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.

What We Do

The aims of QASPA are:

  • 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

Over the years, QASPA has organised many successful initiatives of benefit, firstly to the girls but also their families. Some of the funds raised have been used for the following:

  • QASPA Sports Pavilion which is hosted and run by committee members. This is a regularly run on sporting match days and provides parents with refreshments and a way to all keep in touch.
  • A marquee lining for the Sports Hall, which allows Queen Anne’s to convert indoor space to a bespoke venue for school events.  
  • A range of equipment including DJ equipment, lighting, music stands, media equipment and a pyrotechnic system for drama performances,
  • A contribution towards the update of the PAC over summer 2024
  • Donations to the Sports Development Fund.
  • Sports equipment, including specialist sports filming equipment

We are currently fundraising for No5 - who offer mental health support for young people aged 11-25 who live, work or study in the RG postcode area and Homestart Reading.
