Welcome to the Saint Ambrose Parents’ Association Website. Here you can find information about our organisation, our future and past events, how to contribute and where all your donations go to!
Through our work, we support the boys attending both Saint Ambrose College and Saint Ambrose Prep School and are made up of a mixture of parents from both schools. As a parent, guardian or carer of a child at either school, you are automatically a member of SAPA, so please consider giving a bit of your time to become a full and active member or even join the committee.
We usually meet every month during term time on the second Monday of the month and hold our meetings in Saint Ambrose College or at a nearby venue where we discuss fundraising ideas, future events and plan upcoming events. Meetings usually take only an hour and are a great place to meet other parents and contribute to the Association.
Please take a look around our website to discover more about what we do and the ways in which you can contribute to SAPA and follow us on Facebook and keep up with our calendar to see what’s coming up next!

Summer Party
On Friday 14th June we had our Summer Party at Bowdon Rugby Club. Thank you to everyone who came and so kindly supported our fundraising efforts, and we hope you had a really lovely evening. Thank you so much to the people and businesses who donated prizes for our prize raffle. We’ll let you know how much money we raised next week.
SAPA Annual General Meeting
Thank you to everyone who came to our AGM. You will be able to read the minutes on our website in a few weeks if you couldn’t make it (www.sapa.org.uk).
In the year since 1st July 2018, SAPA raised just over £10,000, a little up on last year, and we would like to thank everyone for supporting all our events and helping raise this incredible amount.
This year, we will be giving at least £7,700 each to the Prep and College to spend on our boys. The Prep plans to spend it (and £5,500 left over from last year’s SAPA money) on playground equipment for both the infants and juniors; the College will spend it (and the £10,000 we gave them last year) on buying new computers and upgrading existing ones.
At the AGM, a draw was made of the SAPA 100 Club and the winners are:
1st Prize – £42.50 – D Mulholland
2nd Prize – £28.33 – J & S Middleton
3rd Prize – £14.17 – M & DL Ainscough
The next SAPA 100 Club draw will be in October 2019 and then every 4 months. If you want to know more about the SAPA 100 Club, email treasurer@sapa.org.uk.
N.B. This applies to any/all SAPA events …. if you can help us and work for a company that has a match-funding policy, please ask them if they are willing to match fund whichever event it is.
For ALL enquiries, please contact us.
THANK YOU!
