Friends of St Andrews School - Trustees Report 2024-25
A total income of £34,331 has been reported this year (note this includes Scouts funds for the Fireworks event). Overall costs totalled 18,584 with donations to the school and the reflection garden totalling £3,958.
Contributions to the school include new rainbow benches for the playground, a staffroom microwave, year 6 leavers contributions and classroom grants to teachers.
Soft drinks, alcohol and snack stocks are currently held which should be considered an asset moving into 2025/26.
General Expenses are purchases that support us to effectively run our fundraising efforts. This year these include new card machines, repairs to the storage container, rugs for the Christmas grotto and a new wheelbarrow.
The Year End balance of £20,412 leaves the charity well placed for school investments heading into 2025/26.
Further Note:
The successful use of PTA Events allows us increasing opportunities to fundraise, however it is difficult to support accounting as the reporting mechanisms are limited and overall sales do not remove fees which are variable.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 30 / 08 / 2025 .
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“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 which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
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.
