## To whom it may concern,
Bushfield School Fund Account for the Period from 1% September 2024 to 31% August 2025
I have examined the accounting records of the above fund and can confirm that:
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
I am satisfied that the accounts represent a true and fair view of the fund for the period examined, and confirm that dedicated school funds are not being administered via the fund.
Please find attached a summary of the account to accompany this letter for your records.
Yours Truly
