To this end, the association has arranged various fund-raising events and activities, which have enabled these objectives to be carried out. Since 1997, the association has continued to support the school by supplying equipment and/or services such as computers, sun-screens, cooling fans, outdoor play equipment, drinking bottles, reading materials, outdoor shelters, benches, kitchen equipment etc. The association will provide such equipment and/or support after appropriate consultation and after obtaining agreement with school management. ## **REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2021-22** During the financial year 2021-22, and after consultation with the school management, the committee has authorised and donated to the school – |Sound Panels|£10,458.49| |---|---| |Sound System Equipment|£4,118.60| |Christmas Presents|£405.49| |**TOTAL**|**£14,982.58**| The committee members have remained unchanged from the previous year. During the year, we have raised money from social events (e.g. Christmas Fayre, Summer Fayre, Cake Sales and Uniform Sales). We would like to thank local businesses who have made donations to the association. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all parents, carers, staff and pupils who have worked hard to make each event successful and enjoyable. Last, but not least, thank you to everyone who has supported us by attending our events and the generosity you have all shown. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2021-22** The Treasurer has prepared the 2021-22 accounts based on detailed documentation provided to her. The association showed a surplus of £8,263 (2020-21 surplus of £468) from the fund-raising activities and social events during the year. The surplus this year derived from an decrease in the donations made to the school due to holding back funds for major future projects. Net takings from fund-raising - £23,246 (2020-21 - £10,468). This increase in net takings was a result of a return to our normal fundraising activities after the cancellation of events in the previous two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The bank balance at the year end was £18,223 (2020-21 £9,960) Costs have been extremely well managed. Each event during the year generated an excess of income over cost. Internal controls for cost control have been reviewed, and are considered to be appropriate. ## **RESERVES POLICY** We have no reserves policy in place.
