Achievements and Performance

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The Parents Teachers Association (PTA) has had another successful year, with numerous thanks to many people who have helped. I would like to thank the many trustees and committee members who stepped forward this year. Events only happen because people voluntarily give up their free time to help and the level of commitment has been phenomenal. Sometimes it can feel like it's a real challenge but the success of the Summer and Christmas Fair for example shows that hard work really does pay off. We received generous donations from the local community at our fundraising events and for that we are extremely grateful for such a generous contribution towards our fundraising efforts which will have a huge, positive impact on the lives of the children and young people within the setting. Our ongoing project of fundraising to provide inclusive play areas will improve the social, emotional and mental wellbeing of pupils with additional needs and disabilities by providing them with opportunities for engagement with both pupils of a similar ability within the setting and their mainstream peers too. |
At the end of the financial year, the total amount in the bank was £5760. There were no outgoings this financial year.
