Achievements andperformance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

• We continue to provide a safe, stimulating, and inspiring environment for the children • Children numbers are at full capacity until September 2027. • This was a successful fundraising year raising £6,684 to support the purchase of pre-school equipment and to supplement running costs. • The setting has been using the Famly childcare management software platform throughout the entire academic year, and feedback from parents has been positive. Now that staff are comfortable with the system, they find it an excellent tool for sharing updates on the children’s activities. Each staff member updates their key children’s learning journeys weekly and sends out biannual reports covering all areas of development. • The Pre-school continues to prepare children for a smooth transition to Primary School. • Regular staff and management meetings were held • The process of obtaining planning permission for a shepherd’s hut has begun, which will significantly expand the Pre-School’s available space. • Adjustments have been made to the Deputy Manager role, enabling the Manager to spend sufficient time on administration during working hours instead of during personal time.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the 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 In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention examiner's statement (other than that disclosed below *)

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

4. have not been met; or
