Our mission
Our mission is to advance the education of the children at King’s Somborne C of E Primary School. We do it in two ways: by paying for the things the school budget cannot stretch to, such as music, school trips and classroom equipment, and by running events through the year that bring the school and the village together.
Who we are
The King’s Somborne School Association (KSSA) is the parent association of King’s Somborne C of E Primary School, a village school of around ninety children near Stockbridge in Hampshire.
We are a registered charity, separate from the school and run entirely by volunteers. Every parent and carer of a child at the school is automatically a member. A committee of parents is elected each year at our annual general meeting.
