| Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit) |
The PTA had a strong and encouraging year, marking a return to form after the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing impact of the cost-of-living crisis, which had affected the previous three years. Throughout the year, the PTA ran a full programme of events designed to engage and benefit parents, children, and staff, in line with our charitable objectives. In the autumn term, the Christmas Fair was a highlight, raising £4,700 while providing a joyful and festive occasion for the whole school community. Additionally, the children’s Christmas card designs raised over £500, celebrating creativity while contributing to PTA funds. The spring term featured the ever-popular PTA Quiz Night, which raised over £1,500, and a children’s disco, which brought joy to pupils and raised £84. The disco ticket prices were intentionally kept low to ensure accessibility and inclusivity for all families. A new event, Musical Bingo Night, was introduced this year in place of the historical Comedy Night, raising £183 and receiving positive feedback. In the summer term, the Summer Fair, held after Sports Day, was expanded to become a larger community celebration, raising over £1,500. A major success of the year was the sponsored “Wild Run,” which raised £9,900 to support the development of a new outdoor learning building. This was a significant achievement and reflected the outstanding efforts of our pupils in securing sponsorship. The PTA also strengthened its links with the wider community by attending the Blackheath and Shamley Green village fairs. The Sharks Football Club continued its valued role within the school, raising £700 through Saturday morning sessions. However, it faces an uncertain future due to a shortage of volunteers. New initiatives launched this year include Sunday Evening Yoga and Mothers’ Meetings, which fostered parent relationships and raised over £1,000. Another notable addition was the inaugural Dad’s Camping Weekend for Reception and Year 1 families, raising over £600 and providing a memorable bonding experience. Additional income was generated through ongoing parent donations, workplace giving schemes, and the “Give as You Live” initiative, collectively raising £1,000. We were also fortunate to receive a generous donation of £1,200 from NISA, kindly facilitated by Shamley Green Stores. The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission concerning the operation of the public benefit requirement. |

We are enormously grateful for the invaluable contribution made by our dedicated volunteers. A significant number of parents and carers give their time throughout the year to help organise and run events, serve on the PTA committee, act as class representatives, and support in many other ways. We also appreciate the continued support of the school staff, whose involvement is essential to the success of our activities.
You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:
- policy on grantmaking;
In addition, we extend our sincere thanks to the local businesses and parents who generously donate raffle and auction prizes, advertise in our materials, and contribute via their community giving programmes. These donations significantly enhance our fundraising efforts and reflect the strong and valued relationship we have with the wider community.

Section D Achievements and performance As outlined above, this year has been a highly successful one for the Summary of the main PTA, both in terms of fundraising outcomes and in revitalising volunteer achievements of the charity engagement and school community spirit. Our programme of events and during the year activities not only raised significant funds but also helped rebuild connections within the school community after a challenging few years. A major focus of the year has been fundraising for the new Outdoor Learning Building. The majority of the funds raised this year, along with surplus funds brought forward from previous years, have been earmarked for this project, which has now received planning permission. This marks a significant milestone, and we look forward to seeing the long-term benefit this facility will bring to the school. In addition to large-scale fundraising efforts, the PTA continued to support a number of much-loved annual traditions. We funded the Easter Egg Hunt and contributed to the cost of Year 6 hoodies and yearbooks, although additional donations were sought to help offset rising costs. We also funded several enrichment activities for pupils across the school, including Earthsong workshops, Bollywood Dance sessions, and Internet Safety talks. These experiences help to broaden the curriculum and contribute to pupils' personal development and cultural awareness. Overall, the PTA has made strong progress this year in supporting the school, its pupils, and families, and we are proud of the positive impact our work continues to have across the school community.
