**----- End of picture text -----**
A total of £24,304 was committed in donations to the school for the 2021/22 academic year. This was transferred to the school on the 15" August 2022. £41,564 was then transferred in July 2023 in respect of the 2022/23 academic year. The amount transferred for 22/23 was higher than the amount raised in the year. This was possible due to built up reserves in the PTA accounts which hadn't been previously approved for donation to the school. The PTA retains a small amount in excess of what is required to put on the fundraising events and is in continued discussions with the school as to the best use for these funds to ensure the ongoing achievement of our fundraising objectives. **----- Start of picture text -----**
