wider school community. These include
regular annual events like the Summer Fair,

The work of the PTFA enables the
advancement of pupils' education by giving
money to school for the funding of
equipment, resources, facilities and other
items it would otherwise not be able to
afford. In addition, the PTFA works to build
a community among parents, staff and
students to further enhance everyone’s
experience, more importantly the children’s
experience at St. Joseph’s School.|

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 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.
