Purposes
The objects of the charity are to advance the education of pupils in the school in particular by:
-
developing effective relationships between staff, parents and others associated with the school;
-
engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils.
These objectives are achieved by organising and supporting school events and raising funds to purchase facilities and equipment for the school.
Achievements and Performance
A total of £19,800 was raised for the school during the year through a variety of events for the children and the wider community. Some of these were the Summer Fete, Bonfire Night, Jubilee Celebration and book, Christmas Raffle and tea towels.
The following chart shows total profit for FABS year on year:
The previous two years of fundraising had been heavily impacted by Covid-19 and the summer fete of 2021 had to be postponed to the autumn and is, therefore, included in this year’s figures.
