Managers report.

Firstly, it is so nice to see everyone, thank you very much for attending the AGM here at the White Hart Hotel.

We have been very pleased with our role numbers this term, with 13 children on role using 83 out of 120 sessions. We always see children increasing their hours throughout the year ready for starting school and children looking forward to joining us once they turn 2 later in the year. Although role numbers are positive we will continue to promote the preschool with our banner outside of the school to promote we have spaces available, and hope to rely on a positive word of mouth for our setting to gain new parents as we feel this is the most effective way of encouraging new families.

We have had a busy start to the new school year with welcoming the new changes to early years framework and key policies. As a team we have already adopted these changes and have made big improvements with our planning and the layout of the preschool room. We are anticipating OFSTED this year and are continually assessing how we can improve the setting not just for our inspection but to ensure the children are receiving the best level of care and education.

As part of the improved planning and implementation of activities we will be focusing lots more on healthy living including healthy eating and oral health. With this we are planning on more visits outside of preschool down into Wells on the bus. These trips are always enjoyed by the children and allow us to cover many areas of the curriculum. Our first trip will be to see the Bishops palace at Christmas which is always magical.

Financially our figures for the year have been very positive. We are always looking to reduce our spending on resources and now focus on buying toys etc which can be used across many themes. Staff training continues to be a large expense but is paramount for smooth running of the preschool. Having all staff members trained in paediatric first aid, safeguarding and other key areas has proved very beneficial when covering staff sickness and even has allowed us to support the school which also supports our school starters with school transition.

This year we saw the introduction of using tapestry for invoicing. Many thanks to Emily Sheppard for sorting this out. It has proven much easier from a management perspective but also for parents to view and pay their invoices so we will continue with this billing system.

We would like to thank all our families who have supported our fundraising efforts this year. We do struggle with parental support outside of the same parents that continually offer help. We have decided that we will focus on fewer fundraising events following the success of our bingo night. We were so pleased to see so many players attend that had no connection to the preschool. Despite taking more time to organise we did see a bigger reward in the profit raised and the fun had by all.

I would like to take to this opportunity to thank Carol, Charlotte and the two Emily’s for their support, and loyalty throughout the year. Finally I would like to express my deep felt thanks to Ashleigh, Victoria, and Sam who have supported, guided and encouraged our professionalism throughout the year, aiding us to remain successful, the (=o) preschool needs and values this excellent management team.
