Governance and management
The pre-school is managed under the constitution adopted 14th November 1977, as
amended 25th June 2014.
Committee members are appointed on an annual basis. Committee members are
voted in during the Annual General Meeting.
There are monthly committee meetings during which matters which require the
attention of the committee are discussed and agreed upon. Minutes of each meeting
are written up and circulated.
Aims and objectives
To enhan￿ the development and education of children under statutory school age, by
encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through
community groups.
Summary of the main achievements during the period
During the year, we raised around £1,205 with our Christmas Fayre.
We have also made an avid point of ensuring all fees are paid up to date with a more
efficient invoicing system and have streamlined our outgoings by using trade suppliers
for equipment instead.
We have increased the amount of settings offered per week by opening all day on a
Friday which has in tum improved the income line to the accounts. We have also
increased some of the top-up fees in line with the national living wage as previously
they were very low and not a true representation of the actual cost of this to us.
We have improved the Servi￿ by introducing Tapestry which has been really well
re￿iVed by all the parents at the preschool and has modernised it.

We currently have 23 children on the register and 5 places available next term. Our
waiting list is open to all children and entry is based on Surrey County Council's
schools admission policy.
We continue to be involved in the local community, with strong links to the primary
schools next door. We invite the local community to our major events, Christmas
Performance and other after school activities such as cake sales, scoot-athon, family
open days and ice lolly sales. The children do sponsored events" the event includes
the support and help of the local community to raise funds to benefft the pre-school
children of Banstead by providing a much needed and used setting.
The charity's policy on reserves
At the end of the year, we had £22,155 in our bank accounts. Of this, £835 was in the
fundraising pot, which is held specifically to spend on items to benefit the children (for
example, equipment, entertainment, outings and occasionally fees for families who are
struggling to pay).
Our aim is to hold at least £6,000 in the bank accounts as a contingency. We currently
have more than this amount, which is an improvement on the previous year, so the
outlook is better.
Future Plans
We will continue to raise fvnds to provide further equipment and opportunities for the
pre-school children of the Banstead Communty. We need some assistance from
Surrey Council on the building as there are still ongoing issues which cause disruption
in the day to day activities and running of the Pre-school.
