Chair Report – Gemma Kerswell-King
It is my honour to write this year's Chairperson's report for the Friends of Bowhill PTFA AGM.
The PTFA team have worked really hard this year and i am pleased to say that the totals reflect this, with the total money taken £22,229.44. Meaning that, minus our event expenses, we raised £16,314.58.
The Christmas Fair was a great success and the Summer Fete continues to grow year on year, with the addition of our Vintage Fair. I am also happy to report that we achieved our aim of offering some new events this year! We held extremely popular Family Bingo Nights and, in November, Festive Wreath Making workshops, both of which we will be offering again in 24-25.
With the help of a parent volunteer at the Summer Fete we managed to utilise the ‘match funding’ option for staff of larger companies and received a donation of £1,000 from insurance company Aviva, for which we are extremely grateful. We hope that other members of the Bowhill community can look in to match funding from their employers going forward and will volunteer at our future events.
Our success means that the PTFA have been able to donate £13508.90 towards funding requests made by the school. This included the wall art in the Main Reception area and upstairs corridor, and funding towards the new outdoor learning initiative – the Happiness Outdoors Project.
The sole objective of the PTFA is to raise funds which can be spent on items and activities that enhance the children’s education and experience at Bowhill. In order to improve the environment in which the children learn we held a Site Spruce Up day, this was an excellent day that was not only productive but highlighted the community spirit with so many staff, parents and children in attendance. Everyone had a great day and we were asked by many if we would be arranging more, we aim to hold a few this year with the first being this coming Saturday.
Today marks the departure of Teresa Bluff as Treasurer, I’m sure everyone would like to join me in thanking her for all the hard work and dedication she has put into the PTFA. She is going to be hard to replace but we can take some consolation in the fact that she will remain a member of the PTFA.
For the third year running I would like to say again that - The team is full of enthusiasm and ideas for the upcoming year, and we are extremely keen to recruit new members and volunteers to strengthen it further.
Anna and Sarah have been active members of the PTFA despite it being their first year at the helm of the school, and we look forward to working with them and the amazing Bowhill staff to ensure that we can achieve even greater success in the upcoming year.
Personally, I would like to thank every member of the team, for all their hard work this year. I am extremely proud to be part of such a wonderful and supportive group.
Finally, we would not be able to raise money without the support of all families and friends of Bowhill. So to every person who has given up their time to volunteer, baked a cake or bought a raffle ticket, thank you.
