Chairperson report 2025
Good evening, thank you for all taking the time out of your evening to attend our 2025 AGM.
Before we start, I just would like to say thank you to Beccy Dewing who took on the role of chair for the last academic year, I know the support that was offered from yourself towards to the pre-school was invaluable.
I would also like to just acknowledge our current committee and say thank you to them. William Powell – secretary
Laura – treasure
It is important to note that at this time we are still a committee run Pre-school so without these members of the committee the pre-school would be unable to open so we are extremely grateful for the commitment and support these members have offered to the pre-school.
The pre-school is also run by an amazing management team, Jo and Amy, who go above and beyond as well as the rest of the team who without them the children would not be as happy and content as they are within the setting, so thank you to you all for always offering the best care and teaching to all the children. You passion was shown in the pre-school Ofsted inspection this year which came out as a good, we are extremely proud of the team for this and the reported outlined how well the team are supporting the children to gain skills that will see them through later life. We know the pre-school are always striving to support the children they care for to flourish.
In the last year the pre-school team has been stable with no staff members leaving however the team have been very fortunate to have Angie start at the pre-school, who has settled into the pre-school amazingly.
Within the last year the pre-school have started to go through the process of moving over to a CIO (charitable Incorporated Organisation) This means that the day to day running of the pre-school will stay the same however the pre-school will not be run by a committee instead it will follow more of a business model with trustee’s instead. We are now in the final stages of this transition over with the hope that this is complete in the new year.
Finally, with regards to the committee, Laura, Will and I are happy to remain on the committee in our current positions until the CIO is complete which will then mean we will hand over to the trustee’s. We would of course be grateful for any families that would like to join the committee for this period of time, in order to keep the pre-school running until the CIO is complete.

Thank you again for all the contributions to making this year a success and I can’t wait to see what happens in the next year for the pre-school.
