Treasurer's Report
2023 was another busy fundraising year for FOAP with some new events as well as old favourites; £47.7k has been raised with the the Summer Fair and Fireworks contributing 54% of this total and bringing in over £13k of profit. FOAP also organised for a Circus to attend the school's premises in March (last held in 2021), a quiz night and also took over ownership from Atwood for the much loved School Disco held in the Summer and Winter term. Costs unsurprisingly have increased on prior years which has lead to some rises in prices as well as careful consideration of stock purchased.
All expenditure lines include float balances and card transaction fees where applicable
The summer fair was well attended and generated profits of £4k, albeit £1.7k lower than the previous year. Pupils (and parents!) seemed to enjoy some friendly competition in decorating their respective stalls and helping out with the running of certain stalls - THANK YOU!
Fireworks remains a FOAP staple with all tickets selling out in advance, showing the popularity of this event amongst the school population and local community. Sales amounted to over £17k with a fantastic profit of £9.3k.
FOAP were pleased to be able to run a more traditional Christmas Fair this year, having missed one of this nature for the last few years. Many enjoyed seeing Father Christmas for storytime, having fun on the variety of stalls and watching a school choir performance. Along with the sale of Christmas Cards designed by the children, this raised £2.5k
The two clothing bins at the Limpsfield Road entrance to the school, continue to be a steady income generator netting a profit of £3.4k this year.
