St Joseph’s School Association SJSA CHARITY NUMBER 286432 YEAR ENDED 31 August 2023 ## **Bankers** Barclays Sort Code 20-69-15 Account No. 93668363 CashPlus (Opened March 2020 – obsolete after final transfer out in 2022) Sort Code 08-71-99 Account No. 07371329 PayPal (opened January 2022) St. Joseph's School Association (SJSA) @ SJSA PayPal Merchant ID: W77MMGZC4WGMJ ## **THE CHARITY** St Joseph’s School Association constitution was adopted in 1981. The Charity was registered with the Charity Commission in 1981 under registration number 286432. ## **OBJECTIVES** The objectives of the charity are as follows: To advance the education of pupils in the school, by developing effective relationships 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 pupil. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** The Trustees are appointed at the annual general meeting (AGM) which is held during the autumn term by its members. ## **TRUSTEES** Annikka Kauppinen (appointed September 2020) Shane Voinorosky (appointed January 2022) Natalia Barkalina (appointed January 2023) ## **RESERVES POLICY** The Trustees agree to a reserves policy of £2500, which is equivalent to one year’s administration. The balance of funds above this amount will be taken forward and allocated for future projects. ## **Chairman’s Report 22/23** The 2022/2023 saw strong momentum in a range of fundraising activities at the school after recommencement of these activities in the 2021/2022 school year when Covid restrictions had fully lifted. We had a strong and supportive team at the helm with Mr. Bowles as the link Senior Leader. All fundraising activities saw a financial uplift this year. The 2022 Readathon raised £6890 for the school. The auction was extremely well attended and a huge success and raised £ 54,300. Families and friends danced in the sun at the summer fair which raised £7610. Uniform sales over £892. Given the understandably difficult fund-raising environment in the previous years under Covid Restrictions, the SJSA trustees, the Governors and Senior Leaders continued to collaborate on a fundraising approach for the school. The SJSA mission is to continue to focus on key events which promote school community while encouraging parents to give more regular donations to the school and pupil educational enhancement via the Governors fund which provides regulated budgeting for the school (and can be spent without needing SJSA approval). The trustees agreed this was in the best interests of the charity and the school. We were given approval by Governors to have trustees as signatories on the longstanding SJSA Barclays bank account in line with Charity Commission regulations. This made the previously used CashPlus account obsolete, use of the account has now been stopped with the account held open until completion of these 2022/2023 accounts. A Paypal account was opened as an alternative payment platform going forward and to encourage donations for events (like the Readathon) from family and friends overseas which has widened our school community and fund-raising possibilities. Historically the SJSA made £25,000 quarterly transfers to school but over the last few years this has not been possible. However, due to the resumption of fund-raising activities the SJSA was able to make significant payments to the school in the 2021/2022 totaling £47,684. Funds in the bank account at the end of the 2022/2023 school year were £39,000 and we will decide with Senior Leaders shortly on how they can best be spent to benefit the children. Our accountants/auditors ‘LLP Livingstone’ (appointed in FY 20/21) continue to undertake the ‘Independent Examiners report’ which the SJSA requires to validate the accounts when our income exceeds £25,000. We would like to thank our past Treasurer, Annikka Kauppinen, who will stand down in the 2024/2025 school year. Shane Voinorosky, remains as SJSA Chair. We thank him for his tireless work behind the scenes at the 2022 Auction and 2022 School fair which have been huge successes with record attendance. The 2023/2024 school year saw a larger SJSA with many new volunteers bringing new ideas and energy to an exciting school event calendar. We require more volunteers into roles at the SJSA with the emphasis being on a larger and more collaborative SJSA team resulting in more realistic and lower workloads for volunteers. We would encourage families to contribute time to at least two events per year so as to share the workload. Please join us if you can! Whether in an SJSA role, stepping into a role for ad hoc events or giving as little as an hour of your time at an event. Everything helps and makes St Joseph’s School and the school community what is today. Finally thank you to all our gracious, helpful, and generous parents, St Joseph’s School staff and Senior Leaders, for giving your time and money in helping the SJSA reach its targets to support the school. As always it is a HUGE shared effort, and we look forward to a full schedule of fundraising events and a better fundraising climate going forward. Thank you. Annikka Kauppinen SJSA Treasurer ## Treasurer’s Report: ||**RECEIPTS**

The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011( the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to : - Examine Accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act - Follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act - State whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of Independent examiner's report** My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ' true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement. ## **Independent examiner's statement** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached . **S Ahmed ACA FCCA LPS Livingstone Chartered Accountants** Date : 24/05/2024 **Wenzel House Olds Approach Tolpits Lane Watford WD18 9AB** Page 1 ## **St Joseph’s School Association SJSA CHARITY NUMBER 286432 Statement of Financial Activities For The Year Ended 31 August 2023** |**RECEIPTS**
