Summary of the main St Ma
's School PTA Treasurer's
Re ort for 2021/22
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year
For AGNI 14th June 2023
In summary,
the Friends raised f29,119in the year which was up
619,252 on the previous
year. The total expenditure
was 613,607 giving
an overall surplus
ofF15,513, up from a deficit ofF14,392 last year. The
total cash in the bank, at the end ofthe financial
year, was f32,946.The
PTA continues
to work with the school about suitable
items to fund and,
in November 2021, made available
a further R5,290to a number of
significant
resources for the literacy, science and music departments.
There is more detail below on the financial
performance
but just a
reminder
that the accounts are prepared
on a receipts and payments
basis, so only monies raised or paid out in the year are included
in the
figures.
The main fund raising
activities
in the year were:-
The Summer Fair, which returned
to being the main event after a two-
year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic,
and made a large surplus
of
over 610,540.All ofthe stalls contributed
greatly to the enjoyment
and
success ofthe day. The food and refreshment
stalls were very successful
and served a great variety of multi-cultural
food. The raffle was again
a
big seller with some very generous
prizes donated. The tombolas,
toys,
plants, sweets,
bouncy castle, face painting
and books did a brisk trade.
And beat-the-goalie,
courtesy of Mr Styles, has fast become a very
popular fixture.
An enormous
thank you to Rachel, Marcella and the fantastic organising
team for their tireless efforts, the helpers,
publicity team, counters
and
field team for putting
up and taking down the marquees.
And not
forgetting
the generosity
ofthe local businesses
and community
who
make this event happen so successfully.
The Winter/Xmas
Fair which raised a record-breaking
66,454 this year. It
was a splendid
event enjoyed
by children,
parents
and teachers
alike,
and we give special thanks
again to Rachel for kindly volunteering
to run
the event. The Father Christmas
Grotto continues
to be the highlight.
We are very fortunate
that we have parents/carers
within the school
community
willing to give up time to organise
and run these events that
generate
funds that we can use to help the school.
Finally, the Uniform Shop, including
Used Uniform,
whilst only making
a
smail profit per item, is a great asset for the parents/carers
and we
should say a big thank you to Rachel and team for giving
up so much
of
their time to run this for us.
So how did we use the monies raised?
We spent 63,140on running
the events detailed above - this was
included
in the surplus
ofeach event discussed
above - and 84,540 on
uniform.
E2,200was spent on literacy resources for the whole school, f650 on
science resources and 6240 on music resources.

We funded 8600for the Year 6 Leavers' Book which is professionally
printed and gives the children a lasting reminder oftheir time at St Mary' s
as they move onto secondary school.
In summary,
the Friends ofSt Mary's continue
to be able to support the
school's educational
aims by
raising significant sums of money but this
has only been possible by those who volunteer their time so willingly and
the great generosity
ofthe local businesses
and community who support
us.
Finally, I would
like to thank Rena Kiani for
being the Independent
Examiner for this year.
We have a deposit account which remains untouched
at over F8,000.
Briefstatement ofthe We use our current account to fund the aims of the charity, keeping the
charity's
policy
on reserves deposit account monies for any year which fundraising
is insufficient.
