TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT
Charity Name: Spetisbury and Charlton Marshall Playgroup Known as: SCAMPS and The Treehouse Club Registered Charity No. 1023882 Financial Year: 01/9/22 – 31/08/2023 Charity Address: c/o Spetisbury Primary School, West End, Spetisbury, Dorset, DT11 9DF.
Objects of the charity are to provide Preschool learning and extended childcare services to children within the local area.
The Trustees are selected either at the A.G.M or at committee meetings held approximately 8 times a year. They are elected by parents of the Preschool and the current trustees.
The charity runs with a voluntary committee of members made up of mainly parents of the children attending the preschool, breakfast and afterschool club along with other interested parties. We continue to forge a close relationship with the Primary school whose site we share. We aim to meet with the Headteacher, governors and preschool manager 3 times a year. There is one appointed Preschool Manager along with two deputy managers, responsible for the staff and the daily running of the Preschool and they are supported by several assistants.
We were fortunate to be able to fundraise this year and successfully raised £517 through raffles and fayres. This enabled us to support the setting with new technology and to refresh some of the outdoor garden area.
We continue to build on the excellent relationships with the school enabling a smooth transition for the preschool children moving up into school. We continue to offer extended services of a breakfast and afterschool club for preschool and school aged children from 2 years up to 11 years old within the school term times.
We have amended our reserves policy due to the growth of the setting and aim to hold 3 months of running costs in reserve for any eventualities such as redundancy etc. This reserve is held in a savings account at our local Lloyds Bank.
At present we do not make grants, if we were to this would be a decision made by the committee.
In view of any major risks, we currently make decisions as a committee and vote on any matters arising. The Preschool Manager checks timesheets to ensure the correct hours are claimed and the Treasurer then checks for any anomalies before payment.
I declare, that in my capacity of Charity Trustee, that the trustees have approved the above report and have authorized me to sign it on their behalf.
