Report for AGM Wednesday 27th March 2026
Thank you all for attending the AGM today and its lovely to see everyone.
This academic year we started off in our new building. This has taken some getting used to and I personally would like to thank staff for their hard work and support with their continuity with providing the best that they can for the children in our care. We have had a few staff changes since the last AGM with Rachel, Louise and Amanda leaving us who have all taken early retirement. We have welcomed Vicky and Charmaine to the team and we also look forward to another member of staff joining the team after Easter.
This academic year we have continued to have ‘Boogie Tots’ come into the setting to do some dancing and action songs with the children. The children have really enjoyed this and we hope to continue with this every other term. This helps children with their co-ordination, physical activity and can also help to support their listening and attention. The children are really benefitting from these sessions. We have also had Little Music Stars visit the setting to do some singing with the children. This really helps with the children’s listening and focusing skills as well as improving their communication skills.
I would like to say a very special thank you the committee members who are stepping down after being on the committee for a good few years on committee. Your commitment and support is very much appreciated.
I would also like to thank the parents of the children at the setting. You have been very generous with fundraising and it all goes back into the setting to benefit the children. This year we have brought some new equipment for the MUGA as well as new table chairs and other furniture for the setting
Thank you to the committee for giving up your time to help with the setting. Without you the setting wouldn’t be able to open and also a big thankyou to the staff. Every year is different, some years more harder than others, and the staff do an amazing job year in year out.

Independent Examiner’s Report
Teynham Community Pre-School
Registered Charity No: 1025917
I report on the accounts and financial statements of the Teynham Community Pre-School (PreSchool) for the year ended 31 December 2025.
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The Pre-School’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Pre-School’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
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 Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PreSchool and a comparison of the accounts presented with these records. It also includes consideration of an 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.
