## **Ancells Farm Community Preschool**
# **AGM 2020**
## **Monday 27[th] July 2020 7PM Held via zoom**
Our academic year starts off yet again with some challenges. Mainly low numbers of children.
Through hard work, advertising and word of mouth, the staff and committee members managed to get enough new starters for us to remain open.
We thank everyone for their tireless work in keeping the preschool open.
We also had changes in staff, with a couple of members moving on to new positions which left a huge gap, but we successfully filled the positions and give a very warm welcome to Kirsty who has come on board with us.
The biggest challenge we faced this year was the Covid 19 pandemic. With essential workers children numbers incredibly low, and staff and some children being vulnerable, we took the decision to keep the preschool closed. Instead our staff worked on their own development and learning, and they did “check ins” with the children while advising on ways to help the children learn and develop.
We very much hope for a change in circumstances within the pandemic soon which means we can get back to a normal way of teaching the children.

## **ANCELLS FARM COMMUNITY PRE-SCHOOL**
## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Ancells Farm Community Preschool.**
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act: and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner’s report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act. and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
