**benefit)**|The PTFA objectives are to advance the education of the pupils in the
school in particular by –
•
Developing an effective relationship between the staff, parents
and others associated with the school
•
Engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which
support the school and advance the education of the pupils.|
|---|---|
||Specific objectives in the 2024 period to 31 August included:
-
raising funds for a new climbing frame for the main playground for
all children to play on to include installation (including risk
assessments etc) and safety surface. This is a continuation of
efforts from 2022 and is expected to conclude in 2025. The
fundraising goal is £20,000.
-
Distributing funds to teachers to enable them to make some small
additional equipment purchases for the classrooms..
-
Applying for a grant for art related activities, and distributing funds
to the art teacher relating to those same activities.
-
Applying for a grant from Decathlon to resurface the ‘cage’ area of
the school.
-
Strengthening the relationships between parents and the school
by providing communication links and suitable forums (e.g. class
WhatsApp groups).
In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity
Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings.
The PTFA organised and held a number of fundraising events throughout
the year for all the children attending the school. The events were either
held at the school or in the local community. The events were organised
and run by the PTFA with the support of the school and teachers. These
included:
●A summer fair and a winter fair
●A BBQ to fundraise on London Marathon weekend
●Two discos
●Coordinating entry and related fundraising efforts for students
in the ‘Run Kids Run’ fun run
●2nd hand uniform sales
●2nd hand toy sales
●Ice cream sold after school during summer term|

Section D Achievements and performance
## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
- Achievements and performance – ● Fundraising efforts during the year were successful, raising £5,331, net of expenses.
- ● The children participated in the ‘Run Kids Run’ event. The PTFA received a £5000 donation for participating and children fundraised an additional £1564 as part of this event.
- ● Class Whatsapp groups have high memberships (e.g. the 2023/24 academic year Year 1 Whatsapp group had 60-70 parent members, for a class of 60 children). These groups are used regularly by parents. Class reps also post information on these channels relating to PTFA events, and reminders such as for PE day or class trips.
- ● The PTFA successfully applied for and received a £4000 grant to fund some art projects.
- ● All events were tailored to be inclusive to as many students as possible, whilst remaining economic. For example the discos tickets were £4-£5, 2nd hand uniform sold for £1 per item, activities at the summer fair started at 50p, and the majority of children’s activities at the winter fair were free. Almost all events were open for every pupil to attend/participate in.
- ● The first funds were deployed for the new playground play equipment of £9,000
- ● A grant was obtained from Decathlon to resurface the school ‘cage’ area, turning it into a multi sports arena that the school can lease out, outside of school ours
- ● The other funds distributed (which mainly relate to art education, small classroom budgets, and a sandpit) benefit children across the entire school.
- ● Continuing to raise the profile of the PTFA and increase the number of members volunteering and interacting with the PTFA.
