Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
We have a strong and enthusiastic team of 6 staff who provide outstanding quality care and education. We offer morning sessions from 9.15am to 1pm Monday to Friday, plus afternoon sessions from 1pm to 3pm on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Our afternoon sessions are aimed at children aged at least 3 with an increased focus on learning and getting them school ready. In total we are able to offer parents up to 28 hours of childcare a week during term time.
Our baby group which is aimed at babies up to 2 years of age, was held in a small room at the village hall. After restarting following closure due to Covid-19 lockdowns, we found there wasn’t as much demand for this group as expected, perhaps due to our Covid-19 safety measures (wearing of masks and no refreshments) which made the group not as comfortable as before. Our coordinator decided to step down, and as no-one stepped forward to take on this role, we sadly decided to close the group at the end of July 2021.
However, the opportunity arose to restart our afternoon toddler group, this time on Tuesday afternoons making use of the hall and garden areas. Two volunteers offered to run this group and it restarted after Easter 2021. This group has proved very popular, with consistently high numbers of groups attending. While providing the village with a much needed group for parents, it also acts to advertise the preschool to prospective parents and has helped the preschool start the new year with strong numbers.
