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:

I am the Preschool chair and have been with the preschool for the last 6 years as chair and 2 years on the committee before that. We would like to thank you for coming along today to share our achievements in the last year.

Every year at our AGM we set ourselves positive targets:

Manager’s Report – Rebecca Herbert

At Kings Sutton Preschool I have been in place as the manager since 2018 and I worked previously as the deputy manager from 2013. In this time, I have supported the growth of the Preschool to what it is today. Things have not always been easy; we have seen our fair share of challenges. But what has always remined the same is the passion and dedication from the staff team, to always provide an environment in which children feel safe and secure, that they can grow and develop within. We are always adapting, reflecting and ready to make positive changes if and when is needed. As a registered charity, which is run by a voluntary committee, we are dependent on voluntary support, which fortunately we have in this wonderful community.

Achievements

Over the last year we have seen financial challenges far like any we have seen before. As a staff team and committee, we have worked tirelessly to keep the Preschool open. As I am sure many of you may be aware, the early years sector is underfunded and currently not receiving the support it needs. With the government putting in place new childcare initiatives we are hoping that the sector will soon receive the support and recognition it so deserves.

This year we have:

• As a team and committee, we have looked closely at our outgoing costs, reducing wherever we can

We are incredibly proud of our Ofsted inspection and despite all the financial concerns and unsettling feelings, we absolutely feel this still truly reflects our Preschool:

“Staff have an exceptional understanding of how to support children's care and development. They work together as a close-knit team to monitor children's learning. Staff continually identify any gaps and put strategies in place that help children to develop. They share this information with parents and carers promptly so they can further support children's progress at home. Staff support all children to make rapid progress in all areas of development. They ensure children, regardless of their starting abilities, are fully ready for school. Staff demonstrate particular dedication and compassion when supporting children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. They carefully adapt the curriculum to ensure that every child can access the high-quality learning opportunities. Staff plan exhilarating learning opportunities that keep children highly engaged. They use children's interests to discreetly teach them new skills and knowledge”.

I would like to finish by sharing our Ethos:

skills. Through interactive and practical activities, to reinforce and challenge a child’s existing skills, rather than to concentrate on formal learning.

Targets for the Year Ahead:

members, the community, and local businesses for support in fundraising and sponsorship.

Admin’s Report – Sarah Clayton

Funding:

Fees

Fees have increased across the board again this year to reflect the cost of living and we have introduced an ad hoc fee to breakfast club sessions – to compensate for the admin costs this entails.

Election of Office Bearers – Emma Watts

Each year we need to confirm with our current committee members who would like to remain and appoint Management Committee members.

So, firstly, I wish to stay as the chair and will need votes from the committee that they are happy for me to remain.

Voting was undertaken and appointments made as below:

Chair – Emma Watts stepped down from position and stepped back up, 2nd by Sam Finch, Amy Osenton and Sarah Gale

Treasurer – Amy Osenton stepped down from the position and stepped back up. 2nd by Emma Watts, Sarah Gale and Sam Finch

Secretary – Tania Wilde would like to step down from the position. Ella Barrington, Rob Green and Kirsty Clifford expressed their interest. The current committee will vote in at the next committee meeting once DBS checks done and appointment decided

Committee Members – Emma Watts, Amy Osenton, Laura Knowles, Sarah Gale, Laura Boswell, Sam Finch

Ros Pantrey, and Timea Marosan to step down as committee members.

N.B. Even though Claire Watts will remain on the committee in a silent capacity as she is a trustee and named on the bank account. Likewise, Bryan Bellamy will remain as a trustee for the time being as a silent member.

New committee members:

And finally thank you all for giving up your time to be with us this afternoon and support the Preschool and all the work that they do.

Next committee meeting – 2nd November, 8pm on Zoom for fundraising planning.
