Welcome by the Chair of the Committee, Emma Watts

Thank you for coming along today to share our achievements in the last year.

Current committee members are:

First, we’ll begin by looking back at last year’s targets:

And lastly, the Preschool cannot stay open without voluntary support, and it doesn’t just have to be parents. All that’s involved is attending a meeting once every 6 weeks where we run through the agenda and share out some duties. These can be anything from helping to fundraise or simply visiting the Preschool after hours to meet work men like electricians. We always take into account the fact that everyone has very busy lives and children to look after so we share out bits where suitable but please don’t be daunted as it’s never too much! Your role can be as large as you like or as small as you like. Every member will help us to ensure that Preschool continues to serve the community and provide outstanding care for the children.

We have managed to maintain a healthy committee over the past year and completed 6- weekly meetings and this all goes towards the successful running of Preschool.

Manager’s Report – Rebecca Herbert

At Kings Sutton Preschool I have been the Manager since 2018 and worked at the Preschool since 2013. Being a part of the Preschool as it grows and develops with every session is something I am very committed to. As a setting our staff team is our biggest asset, we are extremely lucky to have such a passionate and dedicated team that is always ready to learn, change and reflect on their practice.

As Emma has mentioned we are committee led setting and without the support of wonderful volunteers we wouldn’t be able to operate. The AGM is fantastic opportunity for us to all look back at the year and plan for what’s next.

Achievements

Since the last AGM we have run a very busy and successful summer playscheme, our first one since Covid and our flood. We have run two Christmas shopping session, unfortunately it was during a Covid outbreak at school, and we didn’t have as many attend as we had booked in, but we already have two dates booked in to repeat it this year. We had another wonderful Christmas party with a very exciting visitor…. Covid was not stopping us! In the new year we were hit hard with 80% of our team off with Covid, we were forced to reduce session for the first time, but we still manged to operate with reduced hours.

We have also had face to face parents’ evenings, new families visiting and a wonderful transition for the children moving on to school and a brilliant end of year party. As a staff team we welcomed Sarah back from maternity leave in January and Kelley took over managing the breakfast club and Carina started EYPDP training which she completed in June. Everyone had taken part in training; our team is always looking to learn more, and we all ensure that essential training is up to date. After six years of waiting, we finally had our Ofsted inspection, being award Outstanding again:

“The provision is outstanding Children thrive at this inspirational setting created by dedicated staff. Their welfare and happiness are at the heart of everything staff do. Children of all ages develop close friendships and are particularly caring towards each other. They cannot wait to greet staff with a smile as they arrive and enjoy sharing a cuddle throughout the day. Staff pair new children with a friend to help them learn what behaviour is expected from them from their very first day. Children use good manners consistently without being prompted and show complete respect for the environment. When they hear the tidy up music, they instantly know to put things back where they came from and join staff ready for the next part of the day. Children independently fetch their own sand timers to help them negotiate and share resources fairly with their friends.”

I would like to finish by sharing our Ethos:

Our ethos is that we provide a safe, secure, and stimulating learning environment where all children can thrive, gaining in self-confidence and learning to socialise through quality play in

our language rich environment. That all children are happy and settled and have a strong, warm attached to our team.

Our aim is to emphasise heavily on the prime areas set out in the early year’s foundation stage. Once these are secure, they allow for the firmest foundation for learning and development. We aim to provide a child lead environment which enables each child to develop at their own pace with their independence and social skills. Through interactive and practical activities, to reinforce and challenge a child’s existing skills, rather than to concentrate on formal learning.

At Kings Sutton Preschool we are passionate about safeguarding everyone and inclusion. We have created an environment that suits every child’s needs. Where communication aids are used by all, and sensory resources are part of our continuous provision. Differences are celebrated and embraced within the culture of our Preschool.

We offer our own premises, situated within the grounds of Kings Sutton Primary Academy School, with excellent resources, a range of equipment, large indoor and outdoor play areas, supervised by our fully trained, experienced, and dedicated staff team. We also have an additional sensory garden that we share access to with the primary school. Our team is constantly reflecting on their practice and striving to provide the best care. We are run by a wonderful voluntary committee that all work closely with the Preschool team.

Targets for the Year Ahead:

Our first target and one that we have as a rolling target, due to our reliance on funding. Is to fundraise to ensure our Preschool continues to thrive and make improvements.

We will be using the money from the Tesco grant to support our sensory garden and continue the success of our new Nature Detectives sessions. Nature Detective’s is a nature inspired session run twice a week with Lucie, that provides hands on experiences and wow moments.

And lastly, the Preschool cannot stay open without voluntary support. It doesn’t just have to be parents…all that is involved is attending a meeting once every 6 weeks where we run through the agenda and share out some duties.

Duties can include fundraising or simply visiting the Preschool after hours to meet outside agencies eg. Plumbers, electricians

We always take into account that everyone has very busy lives and children to after so we share out bits where suitable but please don’t be daunted it’s never too much!

Your role can be as large as you like or as small as you like – every member will help us to ensure that Preschool continues to serve the community outstanding care for children.

I will now pass you over to Amy for the Treasurer’s report.

Admin’s Report – Sarah Clayton

2021/2022 was another tough year for Preschool with the effects of the pandemic still impacting on the number of children on role.

We ended the year with 29 children on role – 14 of these children have left us to go onto school and 4 new families joined us in September, starting the year with 19 children on role. This is less than previous years but like last year the number of younger children joining us has increased meaning they are spending more time with us before heading off to school. We are also forecasting for the next couple of years but this is always a near impossible task.

We have many families looking to increase sessions after October half term and January.

We have:

6 children on our waiting list for January 2023

4 children on our waiting list for April 2023

0 children on our waiting list for September 2024

0 children on our waiting list for January 2024

2 children on our waiting list for April 2024

Election of Office Bearers – Emma Watts
