PFTA TREASURERS REPORT
0110912023- 311812024
We have had a great year of fundraising and have given generously to the school for the senior
playgro¥Jnd project, income generated by committee held events and sales totalled £18627.70
(before expenses), this does include the majority of the money raised from the wing walk that took
place in July/August 20231£4115.231. Thanks should be given to everyone who helped out with all
the events especially Candise for organising the two fair5. Both of these were very successful with
the Christmas fair profit up by £350 and the summer fair taking the most amount of money for the
records I hold. The secrets room took over £500 for the first time. Thanks to all those who created
the hampers for the raffles, they looked amazing and finally my thanks to Becky for all the hard work
she puts in for the fairs, organising, purchasing and general sorting out and selling tickets for the
raffles.
Our target at the beginning of the year was to raise £8000 and we achieved this target so well done
We continue to help the school financially each year, Supplying water to the staff room, pupil
Christmas presents and 50% of the lease of a minibus (Contribution £3228.001. We normally
contribute 50% of the school planner costs but there were enough of these left over so no new one5
were purchased this year. We also contributed an irbitial £4000 in September 2023 and then a
further £20000.00 in May 2024 towards the senior playground project.
Our overall current position remains reasonably healthy, expenditure has exceeded income this year
but with a few smaller bills to pay in August we will end the year holding a little over £IOOOO in the
bank, this is down from the £28000 last year and we will need to be a little cautious this coming year
in terms of what we can offer to contribute as we do have the ongoing expenses. We also need to
have money in the bank account for the floats for the fairs and to purchase uniform to sell on.

Assuming we can at least match last year we could be in a position to contribute in the region of
£30CN)-4000 to the school for a project this financial year.
It should also be noted that we have had other income and expenditure going through the bank
account. This includes money raised for the BGS festival, money for Race for Race for Life in memory
of Laura William5 and senior playground funding. Some of this money remains in the account to be
paid over to the school in the coming weeks. The total income received for these items stands at
£18034.81 IBGS Festival £6175.81, Race for Life £1859.CH) and Senior Playground £IOOOO.001 the
total still to be paid to school is £15820.36.

- 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.
