Dear Mrs Murphy,
INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION OF SCHOOL FUND ACCOUNTS
I have now completed my independcnt review in respect of the year ended 31 August 2024, as all my
outstallding queries have now been cleared.
I am therefore enclosing the signed Audit Chcclclist and Audit C¢rtificate in accordance with the new
guid¢lines. There are no matters that I consider need to be highlighted in the recommendations sectio
although I have madc some wmments on the checklist which I considered to be appropriate.
I would like to thank Ricki for all her help again this year. There was a little more work required this
year, but Ricki very kindly proved m¢ with all the necessary documents requested very promptly.
I take this opportunity to enclose my finn's invoice, for settlement in due course.
Kind regards.
Yours sincerely,
Peter Bryant
