Good evening, All
Thank you for taking the time to come along to the AGM and showing support to our pre-school. It really does mean a lot as without you all this setting wouldn’t be possible, and our children really would miss out on fantastic opportunities.
Throughout this year we have held meetings on Zoom which I personally feel have worked well to enable as many people as possible to attend.
During this meeting we will sum up the past year and discuss the roles of the committee.
Following the meeting we will also sign the constitution and have our election of members.
I would like to start by thanking all staff involved in running of Brooksite Under 5’s Pre School. We have been through COVID and fingers crossed this winter is not as harshly impacted as prior years but also thanking the team for stepping up to cover Savannahs maternity leave and now Gemma’s maternity leave plus not forgetting welcoming Sam this year too who has slotted in really well
An overview of current staff is as follows:
Savannah – Manager – Currently on Mat Leave
Gemma – Deputy Manager – Currently on Mat leave
Lisa – Senior pre school assistant and SENCO
Annabel – Qualified pre-school assistant
Julie – Qualified pre-school assistant
Sarah – Pre-school-assistant
Sam – Pre-school assistant
Fundraising
Although COVID drastically impacted fundraising opportunities we have been extremely lucky this year to have Vaillant Group UK Ltd pay for our new flooring which has been recently installed. It has provided the
children a cosy setting and also an area for more messy play/lunch time meals without food getting on the carpet.
We do need to start thinking of ideas for next year
Activities
We have grown further on additional activities offered in setting which really help children to enjoy their time here. Especially now most children now attend the full day sessions. Examples of things are:
Robot Reg phonics
Sunshine forest school
Christmas party
Leavers party
