About Us

Name: Pippa Wilson

Position: Chair

Tell us about yourself: I am a Mum of 4 kiddos ranging from 1-11. I LOVE organising and you'll usually find me on Pinterest looking for birthday party ideas. I'm very crafty and hands on. When I'm not "Mumming", I like to stay fit, read and sleep.

What's your favourite PTFA/FFA event?: My kids love the Disco. My favourite event is the Summer Fayre.

What is your hidden talent?: I can sing "How much is that doggy in the window" backwards. My mother is so proud.

Sum up the PTFA/FFA in one sentence: A group of parents, carers and teachers that are part of a community where we have fun raising money for the pupils to benefit from.

Name: Nicola Booth

Position: Vice-Chair

Tell us about yourself: Having moved down from the West Midlands 10 years ago, I am mother to three children, of which my eldest two are pupils at Clyst Heath school. 

My educational background is rooted in the sciences and commerce, having achieved biology, chemistry and economics A-levels followed by a 1st Class Honours Degree in Biomedical Sciences and Business Studies. After university I went on to forge a successful career at senior management level in the medical device industry across several strategic areas including product development, sales and marketing at both UK and international levels. 

I am currently on a career break until my daughter starts school and thoroughly enjoy this precious time with her and supporting my two young boys.

In my spare time, I enjoy swimming, surfing, socialising with friends and drinking wine...not necessarily in that order!

What's your favourite PTFA/FFA event?: Anything selling Pimms

What is your hidden talent?: I am pretty good at any sport involving a ball

Sum up the PTFA/FFA in one sentence: Our FFA is a great organisation to get involved in to raise money for our school and support our children while making friends and having fun.

In my spare time I work part time at Sainsburys.  As well as this I am an active member of Trinity Church who meet in the school and help with the youth work on a Sunday, as well as Katch on a Tuesday. I am also a qualified teacher and have seen first hand what other school PTAs have achieved.

What's your favourite PTFA/FFA event?: My favourite event, is chocolate bingo (hopefully we will get to share that with you this year).

What is your hidden talent?: My friends tell me it is that I can talk!!  But I do love to jive dance when I can.
