Regarding School Fund Income 2023-24
All income and expenditure has been recorded against relevant headings, a breakdown of which is held electronically in School Cash Office (Tucasi).
We’re pleased to say that trips took place during the year and Year 4 & Year 6 went on residential trips.
The PTA held a number of successful in school fundraising events. The PTA used their fundraising to subsidise the cost of school trips and swimming lessons for all year groups. The PTA also funded leavers’ books for Year 6 pupils.
We were also grateful to receive charitable donations from Egham United Charities and Schroeders Charity to help disadvantaged children attend residential trips.
The school fund received a donation of £1,000 from Neighbourly towards books and £547 from Jupiter for fence and outdoor classroom paint.
We continue to be a cashless school, with all payments now made online.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the PTA and parents who have made donations to the school fund, their support is invaluable.
Looking to the future we will continue to work with the PTA and the parents to raise valuable funds for the school for the benefit of our pupils.
The accounts were successfully audited by Tony Moore of Moore Accounting.
