The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) at Aarhus International School is dedicated to fostering a strong sense of community and involvement among parents, teachers, and students.
What the PTA does
The PTA is a volunteer-run group of parents and teachers working together to support the school community, and create a better learning and social environment for all children.
As a non-profit, volunteer organization, the AIS PTA allocates all funds raised from food sales during school events and donations, including second-hand uniforms, directly towards organizing and improving future school events. This approach ensures that our activities are self-sustaining and continually enriching for the entire school community.
By participating in PTA initiatives, you contribute to a collaborative effort that enhances the educational and social experiences of our students, while embodying the values that make our community exceptional.
Being part of the PTA strengthens the school community so that your child can recieve the dynamic, holistic and supportive education of an IB school.
As we are an International School, our PTA also functions as a support to new parents. Moving to Denmark can feel confusing and hard to navigate. Luckily, our PTA is here to provide advice, support, socialisation and networking for newcomers to the country.
PTA Major Events
Throughout the school year, the PTA organises several major events to enrich school life and to bring the community together. These major events require a huge amount of support and team work, and what our PTA is able to achieve is nothing short of phenominal!
The PTA manage everything from event planning to event execution, cooking and baking, decorating, face painting, dressing up as santa, even bringing their own pizza truck – you name it, the PTA does it!
Below are some images from some of the larger events, to give you an idea of how special our PTA is.
