Public benefits
Purpose 1: Improved relationships between home and school The benefit which flows from this purpose includes funding for additional resources for the school and links built with the local community. This is demonstrated through having an active PTFA that works in partnership with the school and engages parental support. This purpose does not lead
to harm. The benefit is for children at Ballinamallard Primary school. Charity trustees (PTFA committee members) are usually also parents at the school which their children attend and hence gain benefit in the same way as all other beneficiaries. This benefit is incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all beneficiaries. Purpose 2: Advancing the education of pupils in the school The benefit which flows from this purpose includes increased educational progress and attainment of pupils in the school and links built with the local community. This is demonstrated through pupils having access to resources, events, activities and links with the local community which are not available through direct school funding. This purpose does not lead to harm. The benefit is for children at Ballinamallard Primary school. Charity trustees (PTFA committee members) are usually also parents at the school which their children attend and hence gain benefit in the same way as all other beneficiaries. This benefit is incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all beneficiaries.
... [more] [less]What your organisation does
Ballinamallard PTFA is made up of a small number of volunteers who are genuinely interested and care about the pupils and staff within school. We are always striving for creative and innovative ways to raise vital funds for the school community - usually through fundraising events and activities. In the past we have raised funds by holding
Christmas and Summer Fairs, school discos, break the rules day, ran tuck shops at sports day and other social gatherings, sold recipe books, made and sold cards and calenders and are currently organising a family fun night Beetle Drive. With the extra money that the events raise we are able to provide pupils with extra resources within school as well as helping to fund a range of after school activities and outside events and trips.
