## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Rosemead School Association** I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Rosemead School Association for the year ended 31[st] August 2023. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The income for the year ending August 31st 2023 was £28,066, with expenses of £14,982 and £5,698 paid to Thurlow Educational Trust in the year. In accordance with the charity commission rules, the accounts have been prepared on the receipts and payments basis and for the first time require an independent review as the income exceeded £25,000 for the financial year. The opening bank balance for this financial year was £15,409, with an additional cash in hand figure of £223. The closing balance was £22,810, with cash in hand of £538, with £329 of money received that was incorrectly paid to the charity and requires returning to source. In terms of profits raised from significant events held, these were: - Summer Fair - £5,068 - Christmas Fair - £4,226 - Uniform sales throughout the year - £3,702 - Quiz night - £1,080 - School disco - £900 (some costs had been incurred in the previous financial year) - Camping - £536 - Christmas puddings - £374 - All other activities - £569 During the year, the RSA funded the following: - Various school donations - £5,698 - Year 6 leavers party - £885 - Christmas presents for children - £820 - Christmas trees for both sites - £622 - Gifts for staff - £531 - All other costs - £512 The above meant that the charity’s reserves grew by £7,387 by the end of the financial year to be able to be used for future donations. All the above, allowing the RSA to meet their objectives of engaging in activities or providing facilities and equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils. As always, we thank all those that got involved in the fundraising activities. Dated: 3[rd] December 2024.
