Springfield Primary School PTA – Trustees Annual Report – Year Ended 31st August 2025
Another busy year for the Springfield PTA with a full events calendar and as always, a strong group of dedicated volunteers who give up their free time to make all the activities happen for our school children.
Summary of Events
The Christmas fair remains in school time and was again, well received and donated to by parents, with a suggested donation rather than ticket price being the consideration. This results in all children benefitting from the fun event, keeping it inclusive for all.
The Christmas Market is annual event that always gets a great response from the children to experience the Christmas shopping experience and the value of empathy in thinking of others at this time of year and being able to choose a gift for a loved one.
The Santa ’ s Grotto also returned to the events calendar, which was a great success along with some other festive related activities such as the Chocolate Tombola , Crazy Hair Day and Xmas Card Designs .
This year saw the return of the sell-out Quiz Night , where the parents, staff and friends of the school had a very entertaining, child free evening of fun with Mr Stanley once again being the quizmaster extraordinaire.
School discos were once again a triumph with the format remaining the same as the previous year of providing a treat bag to all children instead of a tuck shop. This proves just as cost effective while controlling the amount of sugar consumed by the children following on from feedback from both staff and parents.
The annual Mothers & Father ’ s Day markets remain popular activities for the children across all key stages. Feedback from parents was that the children loved to be able to choose the gifts for themselves and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
The Summer fair took on a “Summer Around the World” theme this year with multiple outdoor stations for the children to enjoy in school time, with the MUGA and field remaining open at pick up time for families to enjoy the lawn games. For next year, current plans are for the return to the larger weekend summer fair to keep the format fresh for the children and give the wider school community a chance to get involved in the activities.
This year also saw the return of the Xmas Raffle , which alongside the Summer Raffle were excellent fundraising activities thanks to the incredibly generous donations of prizes from parents and businesses in the local community.
A couple of new, well received activities were also added to the calendar this year with the introduction of the Bake Off and the Football Tournament .
All of our events rely on the generous time donated by volunteers to make them run smoothly. We simply could not do all these events without you. Springfield PTA is a registered charity so if you have any volunteering days available from your employment, please consider registering as a helper – we need help throughout the whole year to keep the events diary full.
We would like to extend our thanks to the Springfield staff for their continuing support in making all PTA activities happen.

Income 2024-25
Total funds raised in the year were £27,579. After costs of £9,329, this resulted in a Gross surplus of £18,249 .
The Christmas income increase was driven by a decision to implement an increase in the charge per present at the Christmas market for the first time in several years while maintaining cost control. The re-introduction of the Christmas raffle was also a good fundraising generator.
The summer events had the same in-school format, so income was consistent with prior year. The return of an inperson in-school weekend event is being planned for next academic year.
The Mother’s Day and Father’s Day markets were reasonably consistent with previous years. Income was up on both against prior years; however, costs were also higher due to the inflationary impact on the purchase of gifts.
Maintaining the treat bags opposed to the tuck shop format for the discos has continued to prove to be beneficial as the targeted purchase of sweets to the known amount of children resulted in a lower cost and therefore a higher profit on the events.
The summer fair income was marginally down this year, but costs were also managed so that the impact against the surplus earned was relatively negligible against the previous year.
The summer raffle income was down this year, however the re-introduction of the Christmas raffle mentioned above meant that overall, the two activities together resulted in a much higher surplus against last year.
Hosting the PTA quiz again this year was very successful, with the higher profits made compared to the events when held in recent years. This was aided by an incredibly generous donation of drinks which cannot be relied upon for future years.
Expenditure 2024-25
Total expenditure for the year was £11,833 .
The PTA subsidised both the Y6 trip at a cost of £10 per pupil and contributed towards the leavers’ hoodies. This was a total contribution of £1,575 .
The Y5 Langdale trip was subsidised by the PTA at £30 per pupil. The total cost for this was £2,700 .
The Y4 trip to Castlehead at £15 per pupil was subsidised by the PTA. The total cost of this was £1,350 .
The Y2 trip to Llandudno was also subsidised costing the PTA £900 .
£842 was used against the purchase of the attendance boards displayed in the playgrounds, £707 to purchase some drama materials for the Y6 class, £105 for a light panel in Nursery and £95 to fund the purchase of storage boxes.
In addition to the above, we continue to fund the following expenditure, which are on-going commitments to the school:
-
£150 Per Year Class Funds - total spend £932
-
Homework diaries for all KS2 pupils - £1,486
-
School bags for all new Reception pupils – £747
The closing cash position on 31st August 2024 was £19,857 .
There is 1 adjustment for unpresented or uncleared items. One claim for items for the summer fair was received after the school year but included in the figures above. Details are below.

Looking Forward
The PTA will continue to subsidise school trips (see separate PTA meeting minutes from 29[th] September 2025), year group budgets, reception book bags, KS2 diaries and wish list items (potentially for 25/26: EYFS playground resurfacing, new Springfielder experience books for each pupil, and a kiln storage unit, pending cost estimates)

Springfield Primary School is the direct recipient of all funds raised by the PTA. Whilst both trustees listed above attend PTA meetings, it is done so in the main as representatives of the school.
No PTA donations or contributions to the school are authorised in isolation by one person. The PTA operates a committee system by which all expenditure is agreed by majority with the ultimate authority for all expenditure being the responsibility of the Chair, Vice Chair & Treasurer, who are not Springfield Primary employees.
Chair Comments
Thank you Dawn for preparing this report, what an amazing year 24/25 was in the PTA! I feel confident that the finances of the PTA are in safe hand under your stewardship and you are so appreciated.
2024/2025 was an incredible year for the PTA. Despite some initial challenges at the start from a leadership perspective, I feel we found a consistent and well-oiled groove that meant the running of our MANY events never overwhelmed our capacity and we hit out fundraising targets out of the park.
We welcomed a strong team of new members, particularly in the leadership area with the more active participation of Jen, Sophia, Helen, Gwennan, Alice and so many more to count. Our wider net of volunteers is ever-expanding and we genuinely would not be so successful without them. Delegation has been key and it was wonderful to have more hands up in terms of leading events and meant that no events lay solely on the shoulders of one person, something crucial when everyone is donating their valuable time. Lines of communication and collaboration with school SLT have opened further and have proved invaluable to the success of our fundraising.
The re-introduction of the Christmas raffle, the school bakeoff and the quiz took our financial profits ever further and we will continue to include these events going forward, applying tweaks where necessary to streamline efforts and workload.
Digitising our communication & workflows has transformed how we run the PTA and ensures no one person takes on more than they are able. As 2025/26 will be my final year in the school, I am confident that processes are in place to create seamless succession for years to come.
Going forward, we have the funds to back a larger ‘big ticket’ item from school and I’m confident we are on an upward fundraising trajectory despite the previous years’ challenges of covid etc.
Thoughts & Learns
-
it’s so important that we keep full transparency between school, families & the PTA. Mia will be putting together a previously-discussed ‘Your Springfield Journey with the PTA’ infographic to be ready post-Christmas in aid of this
-
Evolution, growth and fresh ideas are welcomed & encouraged in tandem with the school demographic & changing technologies but equally (from someone who always wanted to mix things up) ‘if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.’
-
Events adapt and change based on learns and feedback but our core principle remains: we are an independent charity in service to the school. We will fund by committee but our purpose is to support school in this way, NEVER to comment or withhold based on school policy. The PTA is, for the purposes of funding, Switzerland.
-
Setting a clear schedule of events & confirming dates/format at the start of the year is crucial to our planning, particularly for those working parents with many commitments. More notice = more volunteers ALWAYS.
