TM expressed the school’s grateful thanks for everything the PTA has achieved and explained that the PTA has supported the following school strategic priorities over the past 12 months: - Raise attainment and progress of all students. - Making optimum use of funding and resources to create a learning environment which is fit for the 21[st] century. - Actively nurture and develop the positive mental health, well-being and safety of all members of our school community. Notable PTA fundraising activities and events last year were the Christmas fair, quiz night, 2[nd] hand uniform sales, Founder’s Day, autumn buffet, and refreshments at school functions, including the school musical. 2022 09 29 Ranelagh PTA AGM - Minutes v1 Page 1 of 4 Ranelagh School Parent Teacher Association (PTA) Charity number 1125897 The tangible benefits which the school have seen this year thanks to the PTA’s activities, include: - Youthline support for students. This counselling service has been vital to the wellbeing of the students. - New minibus –delayed due to supplier issues but will have a marked benefit. - Stage extensions – another crucial benefit which has enabled the school to put on new shows such as the little shop of horrors, which was a terrific success. - Curriculum area improvements: - Physics - Biology - DT - Food preparation and nutrition - PE - Music - Drama - The space. TM commented that Ranelagh is fortunate to have a PTA who has the innovation and proactiveness to evolve as the school evolves, and who provides new ideas, new ways of thinking whilst embracing technology such as point of sale card readers at events, online second-hand uniform sales etc. The PTA are seen as a key partner in enabling TM and the school to achieve the vision of: “A world class education, serving the common good.” TM finished by again thanking everybody involved, the committee and all the volunteers that support each event. ## **5. Chair’s report on the last year** LF said that 2021-22 had been a bumper year for the PTA and the figures that would be presented later spoke for themselves in some way. LF proud of the amount raised, as well as how the PTA have evolved as the school (and life) evolves. LF thanked all PTA volunteers for their support to her as chair for the past year and for all their help at events. She gave particular thanks to: - Helen Connolly (not present) whose title was ‘social secretary’ but who actually did events organising, communications, and so much more for years. - Emma Barnard, for her hard work leading the second-hand uniform efforts last year, in what was an unprecedented year for SHU demand and sales due to supplier issues. - Helen Nestle-Fox for her continuous support to LF, help with events planning and running and Bag2School collections. 2022 09 29 Ranelagh PTA AGM - Minutes v1 Page 2 of 4 Ranelagh School Parent Teacher Association (PTA) Charity number 1125897 - Brett Greaves for his hard work getting the PTA finances in order and getting our banking online. - Tim Griffith and Mark Williams for their support of the PTA efforts and for championing everything we do. LF is looking forward to next year and the PTA going from strength to strength and continuing to evolve and improve what we do. As a PTA we have a good reputation with parents, we organise vital social opportunities for our school community, and we raise really vital funds. On top of that, the PTA committee is a lovely group of friends now. ## **6.
