HAMPDEN GURNEY PARENTTEACHERS ASSOCIATION CHAIR'S REPORT 2023124 Chair-julia Rice This report covers the 2023124 school year, from 1st September 2023 to 31st August 2024. The PTA raised £91,349. £14,252 was raised from the regular giving of parental donations. Other parents chose to make one-off substantial donations, sometimes matched by their employers. We received a substantial £9,014 from employers, match funding schemes. The major fundraising event was a summer auction which raised a total of £44,571. Our first major fundraising event was a Danceathon which raised E8,379. In the spring the School hosted a musical which raised £4,930. Two cake sales were held, one in the autumn and one in the spring, together they raised £3,766. The spring bop raised a total af £3,460. The Christmas events, the play & sales of the DVD raised £1,002 and the Christmas tree sale raised £562. Two school uniform sales were held which raised a total of £557. Two movie nights were held which raised a total of £413. Finally we had a small amount of money come in from amazon smile and the giving machine, £444. This Danceathon focused on supporting a variety of projects which were not covered by the regular giving appeal (play deck and PE equipment, class trips and other). We are enormously grateful to parents, sponsorship for events during the first rnonths and their generous donations and commitment to regu lar giving without which the PTA could not continue to support the school. We appreciate the additional gift Aid to any donation. We are also very grateful to parents, employers who matched their donations and all our corporate sponsors for their support, especially on the occasion of the auction and the bake sale, The PTA was able to pay for a wide range of activities for the school. We worked with school staff to identify what would benefit the children the m05t. The total expenditure amounted to £61,025 in 2022123, which was slightly higher than the previous year. Most expenditure relates to the support to specialist teaching1£46,850 out of £61,025, total spending). £32,850 was spent on Art and Music opportunities with specialist teachers. For the third year, the PTA paid for the Physical Education coach for a total £14,000 amount. Those amount5 do not only cover the 23124 school year, but also some costs of the year before.

The PTA 15 happy to support miscellaneous resources £1,907. Some of these resources are able to be used multiple years and across grade levels. The PTA also contributed to school trips1£2,6001.

The PTA has a150 agreed to pay for a whole school subscription to the London Zoo {£500). Which is available to all classes, Nursery through year 6. Our PTA would not exist if it weren't forthe support and involvement of the school's children and their families. Each event in our calendar requires a lot of input from planning to delivery. Though we all celebrate our success, we also recognise the importance of our volunteers. Parents, grandparents. uncles and auntie5 help in a variety of ways. by encouraging their classes to get irwolved with PTA events, donating directly, being part of the PTA committee, and volunteering their time to plan and run events. Each year, the school faces increasing financial constraints and so our role as the PTA becomes even more important. Thanks to our generous donors and volunteers we are able to continue to provide support to our school. We appreciate very much parental positive response to our donation appeals. We are also incredibly grateful for the team of parents who accepted the challenge to organise in-person events, very often in a veryshort period of time. with significant time constraints of their own. They all proved to be extremely successful, and we could feel the kindness, intelligence and positive mindset which is the backbone of our school community. We would also like to thank our corporate sponsorsfortheir support and without whom the PTAwould not have been able to contribute to so many school activities. We would also like to thank our past Chairs and Treasurers, who have worked tirelessly in assistlng fund ralsing activities, and provided support each step of the way. over the past year.
