Committee Meeting Nov. 2023

The committee met in November 2023.

Here are the main points of the meeting:

• The committee has been re constituted and is adhering to strict guidelines from the charity commission. 
• There  will be no meetings until 2024 so that it allows everyone to have time and space to execute the chairity commission requests.
• The committee also voted on no fundraising until 2024 as the end of term is fast approaching. 
• There is no Christmas fundraiser or Spring Fair.
• A member of the committee has been tasked to look specifically at grants.
• There is also a team at the minute trying to sort selection boxes for Christmas - if we can't get them free the PTA will fund them.
