Report of the Trustees

A successful year driven by our primary fundraiser Ashton Keynes Fireworks Display, where a dry night meant a successful event. Increased ticket sales and a bar and BBQ allowed funds to be made for the school.

Other successful events included the school disco, a curry night and supporting school led activities.

The school supported funding for KS1 outdoor play equipment, implementing Doodle a key home learning program, a quidditch set and has been asked by the school to support KS2 outdoor play equipment later on in 2025.

Plans for fundraising in 2025 include a summer fete and the annual fireworks display.
