CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL PLAYGROUP TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDING 31[st] AUG 2022 The numbers of children attending the playgroup has improved this year ,which means more spending was needed on consumables and throw away resources. We continued to be careful with money to ensure sustainability of the charity and I am pleased to say that we finally managed to have a new roof fitted which has made a huge difference to the appearance and safety of the building. Fundraising was still an impossibility as parents do not have much disposable income . Unfortunately , we were unsuccessful with our attempts to apply for grants too as we did not meet all the criteria yet again. We will continue providing quality childcare at an affordable amount. ## CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL PLAYGROUP ## INCOME & EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT FOR YEAR ENDED 31[st] Aug 2022 INCOME 2021 2022 Fees from parents 3,58.11 10,493.81 Nursery vouchers 31,211.87 45,489.23 Fundraising - - Grants - - Sundries - - Bank interest 0.08 0.31 35,170.06 55,983.35 LESS EXPENDITURE Wages 26,312.44 34,725.67 Tel/Utillities/Insurance 2,382.90 1,972.40 Equipment & Consumables - 3,524.44 Maintenance & Repairs 99.35 9,867.26 Inland revenue - - Cash purchases 1,964.86 549.20 Training registrations & licences 72.00 1,794.16 30,831.55 52,433.13 NET INCOME 4,338.51 3,550.22 ## CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL PLAYGROUP CASH PURCHASES FOR YEAR ENDED 31[st] Aug 2022 BALANCE BROUGHT FORWARD - Cash from bank Sept - Oct - Nov - Dec - Jan - Feb 365.00March - April - May 184.20 June - July - Aug - TOTAL 549.20 PAYMENTS Admin 179.12 Misc - Maint 109.09 Equip/resources 198.16 Cleaning 43.62 Snack 19.21 TOTAL 549.20 CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL PLAYGROUP BALANCE SHEET AS AT 31[st] Aug 2022 2021 2022 PLAYGROUP BUILDING Cost £15,2730 3,613.04 4,613.04 Toys & equipment value 3,800.00 3,800.00 BANK BALANCES Current account 28,504.37 32,055.28 Reserve account 629.73 630.04 Cash in hand - - 36,547.14 41,098.36 ## INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS YEAR ENDED 31[st] Aug 2022 ## Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner.
