Report of the trustees
for the year ended 31 August 2024
Our school committee is made up of a combination of school staff and parents. TILe Trustees are also committee members.
The committee continues to strive to provid¢ essential facilsties and ¢quiptnent which support the school and advance the
education of the pupils.
The importanre of ongoing fmancial support which enables teaching staff to ensure pupil's educational & holistic needs ale
met is vital. The committee ar¢ mindful of the impact of th¢ cost of living on families and local businesses,, without their
support it would not be possible to ensure pupils are afforded every opportunity to achieve their full potential.
This year's fundraising was supported by the annual Christmas Fayre with the addition this year of a buying pre-loved sports
gear and games for the children. In our quest to explore new fundraising options, we hosted a Bingo evening in St Joseph's
Hall and with the kind donation of a Teeth Whitening Set from one of our parents, a bonus Ball raffle proved very
successthl. Unifornl Free Fridays continue to be most popular with parents & kids alike in the l&st tern of school. The
Easy Fundraising" App, continues to provide some revenue, cost free through the raising of funds through e-commerce.
We were honoured to receive a generous boost from SaThtandeVs "Just Fundraising programrne. which matched a
percentage Committee fimdraising. Our now annual end of year, Summer Fun Night, brings all those in our community
together, from our youngest Reception Class pupils to our oldest pupils leaving to commence their Secondary.
The Committee have been able to pay for all the Whiteboards. In this ever developing digital age it is vital to have access to
modern technology. Upgraded technology, such as new whiteboards and software, supports teachers in the classroom,
allowing them to connect with students more efficiently and work more effectively. With these advancements, students can
engage in interactive learning, completing online assignments, reducing paper clurter and enabling real-time progress
tracking.
We have also been able to continue our commitment to ensuring swimming lessons for Year 6 pupils and transport tolfrom
sporting events throughout the year. The Senior site pupils have also benefited from upgraded indoor sports equipmenl,
vital resources with our unpredictable weather. Beyond academic benefits, extracurricular activities are essential for
students, emotional and social development. They offer a break from academic pressures and provide opportunities to
develop friendships and social skills.
Fundraising within the school comrnunity has become more than raising money. It has developed into a crucial role in
keeping school pride alive and numring connections within the school & wider cornmunity. It has brought iogether
students, teachers, parents, and local community members, ¢reating a sense of unity and shared pu￿05¢. Our events are
providing an environment where everyone feels they are contributing to the school's success, which boos15 collective pride
and a sense of belonging. These events have becom¢ important opportunities for positive interactions and buxlding stronger
relationships within the school community and raising much needed funds for our pupils.
Plans for future periods
The future fundraising plans of the con]mittee are to support the school to replace & update academic resources and training
for staff, Play resources for the Junior Site and the ongoing commitment to swinuning lessons and transport tolfrom
sporting events and other school trip's.
Our Junior Site pupils love being outdoors - weather does not deter their adventurous nature in learning through nature. The
saying "Dity children are happy childrenltl requires puddle suits to ensure they remain warni & dry for the rest of the day.
These will be replaced by future fundraising.
