Chesham Grammar School Parent Teacher Association Year Ended 31 July 2025 Main Activities The Association continues to provide support in accordance with its objects. The main activities in the year were the planning, organisation, and running of voluntary fund- raising events. These included a Quiz night, Christmas Fair and raffles. All the events were staffed by volunteers upon whom the Association relies. The Association also runs a Shop-smart Voucher scheme, earning income from supermarket discounts. It also has a Shop-smart Christmas Club scheme, which collects payments through the year and reimburses, via supermarket vouchers, in November. Cash donations from students, parents are collected and passed to the school's development fund. This scheme has largely been transferred to the school and is anticipated to conclude soon once the last three remaining donors are transferred over. The trustees administer the funds directly and all the income received during the year was unrestricted. The trustees are pleased to report total incoming resources of £36,585 for the year before Charitable Expenditure to the school. After discussion, the Trustees agreed to designate £10,000 towards the school's Pitch to Play project and £15,000 towards upgrading a science laboratory. Reserves Policy The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed are sufficient to meet all donation commitments of which the trustees are aware.
