Plans for 2024125
In 2023124. signrficant purchases were made to support the leaming environment, including a W-
Fi system upgrade, AV equipment for the hall. and the construction of a new outdoor classroom,
partially funded by a donation from Heart of Bucks. The PTA continued to support resources for
classrooms by donating a temily allowance and this will continue in the 24125 academic year rf
funds allow.
Following the recent Otsted inspection, the school is commttted to ongoing improvement and
recognises the need for refomi in the reading curriculum. Accordingly, the Long Crendon School
senior leadership team has requested funds and support from the PTA for the 2024125 academic
year to aid in this endeavour.
The PTA will also endeavour to support Long Crendon school with other enhanced leaming
opportunities for the 24125 academic year as requested by the school, for example the space
dome and similar activities.
Several fundraising events are al￿adY planned for the 24125 academic year, induding the annual
fireworks display, quiz night and Christmas Fair, as well as the usual cake sales and school

discos.
The PTA will continue to advertise the Just Giving platfonn to new and existing parents with the
aim of establishing a consistent fundraising stream through the year that is not dependent on its
ability to run in-person events.
The PTA would be delighted to hear from any parent who is interested in taking on a role on the
PTA Committee. Nominations to the Chair, Vice-chair, Treasurer and Secretary, plus any
Ordinary members to the Committee would be welcome by email to longcrendonpta@gmail.com.
Thank you
The PTA trustees would like to thank all the dedicated PTA committee members, event sub-
committee members, parents, and volunteers who have contributed their time and efforts this
year. Wrthout your support, our events would not have been possible, and we would never have
been as successful in achieving our goals of supporting the school and enhancing the educational
experience for our children. We also extend our gratrtude to the school staff who have been
instrumental in our activities. We look forward to another fantastic year of community spirit.
