Shrewsbury Opportunity Group: Trustees’ Annual Report 2022-23
This has been a settled year. The charity has been able to meet running costs for the first time since The Covid Epidemic.
We are a small team of well qualified practitioners led by an experienced, qualified teacher. We open Monday to Friday from 9.00 am until 3.00 pm term time only. We operate from our purpose-built nursery building.
At the start of Spring Term 2023 we were joined by a new team member to work with our children with SEND, providing one to one support alongside an existing fully qualified SENCO. There are two Key Persons.
All staff are up to date with their First Aid, Safeguarding and Food Hygiene training.
During Summer Term 2022, we joined our local community in celebrating The Belle Vue Arts Festival. We enjoyed exploring the theme of ‘Journeys’ and created salmon making their journey along the River Severn using recycled materials, displaying it in our local neighbourhood for all to see.
We regularly go for a walk, sometimes to just run around in the field, splash in muddy puddles or other times to see a Steam train, collect conkers or look at the Christmas Lights. We ended Autumn Term 2022 with our traditional visit to Theatre Severn to see the Pantomime.
During the Spring Term 2023 we nurtured frogspawn achieving the release of several frogs back into their home environment.
