St Ursula’s E-Act Academy Annual report and accounts Year ended 31 August 2022 The St Ursula’s E-Act Academy Parent, Teachers and Friends Association is a charity which is run by a committee elected each year at the Annual General Meeting. Our Goals.... _To foster, build and support a community across the parents and teachers at our school._ _To enrich the education of the children at our school. This is primarily through organising fund-raising events throughout the year._ Review of the Last Year To achieve these goals we have organised fund raising events and social actives which pupils, teachers, parents, carers and friends of the school can enjoy. We are reviewing the last financial year which is from September 2021-August 2022. It was agreed by the members to move the AGM away from November – it being the busiest fundraising period of the year with fireworks and Christmas looming, and so we deferred to now. Fireworks 2021 – the return. In our first year back after Covid we reduced capacity to ensure everyone felt safe and had a hugely successful event raising over £8k. 2021 Christmas Reindeer Run – Our first Reindeer Run was a huge success as we opted for an outdoor event to try and return to normality post Covid. Raising £679 was superb in conjunction with the Cauliflower Cards raising a huge £539. Quiz & Chips 22 –As I type this on National Womens Day it seems fitting that the winning team coming to defend their title tonight is an all women team. I also need to thank two other great women for their Quiz commitments over the years as it was also our last year with Kelly Warner as host so Kelly thank you for all the year’s you’ve batted away the banter and made a great night, and thank you Fiona for all the years organising the event and despatching a willing husband to the chippy. We’ll miss you both. Enjoy tonight an go easy on Ninj. Lottery 21/22 – The prizes issued in 21/22 relate to the previous year when we sold more tickets, which you’ll hear from Kelly shows skewed profit. Ellie Sykes has kindly offered to take on the monthly draws so Claire will be handing over to her soon. Discos 2022 – Well as expected the discos were a sell out. We reduced capacity of previous discos and split into two discos of 250. After an assessment on the night it was felt by the team we could increase capacity for this year whilst still keeping everyone feeling safe and spaced and using the whole Shine hall. Graduation – Sharon created a fabulous stage for the 2022 year 6 graduation ceremony after we received a request from Nicky Hamilton. A great balloon arch purchased second hand, some lovely decorations made for a great setting. We’ll provide the same in 2023. Summer Event – A low key event was planned for last year as the team were a little burnt out and without an event lead. Nonetheless the sun shone and our BBQ team kept everyone well fed so we could all enjoy the field and Neil O in the stocks! It is clear we need a dedicated team for 2023 (not necessarily PTFA) so I’ll personally drive this recruitment as best I can. Introducing Colin - the new shipping container which arrived during the summer holidays and was finally in it’s home by the start of the new term after a few complications with installation. Thank you to all the team and helpers who emptied the sheds into school, built racking and then filled the container. It’s still a work in progress as each time we have an event there’s some sorting to do but we’ll get there and will need to concentrate on tidying the outside area when we can in better weather. Sports T-Shirts – it was great to furnish so many children with new shirts after a long gap. We’ll order more in time for Sports Day 2023. With our new freezer donated by Claire, we can even sell ice creams at this year’s event! ## Where has money been spent? Some of our events aren’t necessarily big money spinners, more a social/community event showcasing St U’s as a preferred local school with it’s wonderful field, sensory garden and great parent participation. So, with our small team we will aim to do what we can resource to provide fun events and raise money for the ‘nice to haves’ on the school’s wish list. Our discussions are still ongoing regarding a MUGA facility – there are cheaper quotes in now through E-Act but we are waiting to see what our contribution could be, as it is felt by many of the team that the current parents and children won’t have the benefit of it, and therefore we should not commit all our recent fundraising to this. Hardship Fund – Having had various requests from SLT to support families in need, we have launched a Hardship Fund which we have agreed will receive 10% of profits but this will be reviewed at each AGM. The purpose of this is to allow the SLT to allocate as they see fit to families in need of support for uniform, trips etc. Before this was created we assisted with a donation to Yr6 camp in 2022, Christmas Hampers and one-off school holiday club for exceptional circumstances. Finally, thank you to those in the team who plan and put on the events, support us, assist with communications (Sarah) and sponsorship deals (Natasha) and of course those with positions who go above and beyond to make sure we do things well – our wonderful treasurer team work very hard behind the scenes. It’s a fabulous team to be part of. I particularly want to thank Cat for joining us and jumping in with both feet for a huge impact. Welcome! Cheers! Our focus for 2023 will be on building the team but also our bank of wonderful volunteers. We understand that committing is tricky with work and family pressures and will welcome help event by event. Anyone can lead an event – not necessarily a PTFA member and the team will be there to support. ## New constitution We discussed the content of our current constitution in a couple of meetings last year and whether it was fit for purpose and met with the charity commission’s expectations. On review by Claire, we felt that as it was created quite some year’s ago we should consider adopting the constitution recommended by Parentkind. Things like voting in members, having a finite time in service, and when to hold an AGM could certainly be restrictive with our version. I’d like to propose a vote to move to Parentkind’s version. ## **St Ursula's E-Act Academy PTFA Statement of Income and Expenditure Year ended 31 August 2022** |**St Ursula's E-Act Academy PTFA**
