Summary of Main Activities for Year ended 31st Aug 2023
In planning our activities for the year, the trustees have kept in regard the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. During the year The Blue School Parents Association raised £28,103 which, after payment of events, fundraising and administration expenses, left a surplus of £20,028 raised. Together with the opening bank balance/cash in hand of £18,606, the total surplus available to provide facilities and equipment to advance the education of the pupils at the school was £38,634. As in previous years the summer months enabled the largest and highest fundraisers – Summer Fair and Bounce – to take place. Other successful events were the Christmas activities (Cards, Tea towels, Tree Sale, and Raffle), and Uniform Sales.
Donations were paid to The Blue School totalling £15,864, the majority of which went towards playground landscape. A listing of all expenditure incurred in donations to the school is given in the detailed financial statements.
Reserves Policy
There is no formal reserves policy however The Blue School PA will attempt to match as closely as possible the timing of the funds being generated with the funds being granted to the school’s activities and needs. Notwithstanding, from time to time there may be significant future one off commitments which warrant the building of reserves.
