We are grateful for the many hours of support our volunteer parents give to support the PSA. Without this valuable contribution of time, energy & expertise we would not have been able to achieve so much.
SUMMARY OF THE MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN FOR THE PUBLIC
BENEFIT IN RELATION TO THESE OBJECTS
In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity
Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings.
It was agreed at our half-termly meetings that we would fundraise for 4 main goals in 2022-2023:
Portable external lights Refurbishment of our Kindergarten Grounds/Play area Playground Equipment Bell Tent
All of which are facilities or equipment to advance the education of the
pupils.
In addition to these, every year the PSA fundraises to provide:
Teachers’ leaving gifts Easter eggs for the Children Teddy Bears for all Reception children Playtime Games and Equipment Year 6 Leavers Books and Hoodies
All of which help to develop effective relationships between staff and parents and/or support the school.

ANNUAL SUMMARY
2022/23 has been a very successful year thanks to the hard work and efforts of the parents and staff of Pownall Hall School.
All the events organised by the PSA have contributed to developing the relationships between staff, parents and others associated with the school and to supporting the school and advancing the education of the pupils.
The Summer Ball was by far the largest fundraising event which enabled the School to totally renew all its Playground Equipment - a wonderful resource for the children to benefit from for many years to come.
Other events and activities included:
-
second hand uniform shop, we collect second hand uniform & sell it to parents enabling them to buy discounted uniform & help reduce waste.
-
Light up the sky (a bonfire night celebration), quiz night, comedy night, wreath-making, school fairs & raffles, bringing together the school community, family & friends
-
We also fundraise through clothes recycling ‘bags to school’ and ‘easy fundraising’, ink bin recycling, tuck shops and bake sales;
The financial year started 1st September 2022 with £44,526.32 in the PSA bank account. Total income was £75,338.01 with costs and expenditure of £94,172.69.
The year closes on 31st August 2023 with £25,503.79 in the bank and petty cash of £187.85. The PSA has ring fenced the majority of these funds - £25,000.00 for the Playground Equipment, £660 for Forest School equipment and £4,000.00 working capital for the new year.
