CHAIR’S REPORT
Unfortunately, an estimates payment was missed from the Free Entitlement claim in this financial year. A payment of £25,879.96 should have been paid in April but we didn’t receive the funding until June, after the end of the financial year. If we had received this payment at the correct time, we would have had an excess of £1,074.21 which is an increase of £2,201.70 on last year. Due to the payment not being made in April, we needed to borrow £10,000 from the Contingency Account (this is a holding account for redundancy payments) to cover the staff wages. This was then transferred back in June.
We started the year with an 83% attendance in the mornings and 43% attendance in the afternoon. By the end of the school year we had 100% attendance in the morning and an 74% in the afternoon.
If we had received the Free Entitlement payment, our fees would have increased by £18,917.33, which is reflected in the increased number of children that attended from the start of the school year. Our wage bill also increased, along with the pensions and Tax contributions due to the increased staffing levels that were needed.
In staff news, Kirsty left at the end of the school year and we welcomed Clare to our team in September. Cherry also rejoined us in January 2023.
We raised £1,634 in fund raising this year, which included a sponsored scoot which raised £610.00, the carnival raised £219.50, the Christmas Float raised £570 with £94.10 being made at the Christmas Raffle. We used the fund raising this year for resources for the garden including a sunshade, artificial grass, a table and some bark. We also bought some wooden toys, memory and balance toys and a dentist kit.
In the coming year (2023-2024) we started the year with a 97% attendance rate with 65% attendance in the afternoons with an average of 17 children each afternoon, so we are looking forward to a very busy year.
