Manley & Mouldsworth Preschool - Annual Report 2019 2020
Charity Number 1035699 Registered Address: C/O Manley Village School School Lane Manley Cheshire WA6 6RU
Chair Person - Mrs Sue Eaton Trustees Mrs G Mc Tigue Miss S Bell
The Preschool sits within the grounds of Manley Village School, this is a great location for access to the preschool and clubs. The Preschool is an important part of the local community providing childcare for children from the age of 2-10 years old. This preschool provides not only the schools with an intake every year, but also provides full wrap around care for both schools which is an essential asset when choosing your school.
Mission Statement
“Where learning is fun, and happiness comes naturally”
Benefts to the local community
The preschool is run by a committee of parents, past and present who have a passion to see that every child excels while in our care.
During their time at preschool the children will develop lifelong skills and grow while having fun. Every child’s needs will be met while learning through play.
During their time with us they will be making friends, sharing and growing in confidence.
We run a Rising 5 session which gets them ready for school, this encourages
Independence and reassures them what will happen next after leaving us. During this time, they will visit the school see their new teachers, have activities like PE, Reading, writing plus they
will also spend times at break making new friends ready for school.
Unfortunately, this did not happen as Covid hit and we were not allowed to go over to school. This was a difficult time for the children leaving as they were at home due to lockdown, but we did what we could to support them, by making learning packs which were dropped at their doors. This relieved the frustration of not coming into preschool and give them things to do at home. During this time, we used visual aids to keep them encouraged when they were feeling down and were struggling. These packs where geared to things they needed to work on while having fun with their parents and other family members.
Treasurer Report
Due to covid we were unable to raise valuable funds, which effected the business. During this time, we were not allowed to have any before or after school sessions. We were only allowed to provide a service for the NHS/DOCTORS and other KEY WORKERS. This meant that we had no extra money coming in to continue to pay staff, this had a detrimental effect on the business looking at the possibility of closure seemed our only solution, but we were determined to keep fighting as we knew the community would be devastated if we had to close. We tried everything to get help, but as a charity we got no support. Eventually we managed to sign up for the job retention scheme which did help us to push through. Unfortunately, sacrifices where made and some of the larger bills where not paid during this time, we believed we could just push through it as we didn’t think it would last. Obviously, the last thing everyone wanted us to do was close like so many around us.
The accounts during this time would not be produced by the deadline due to COVID therefore, an extension was applied for and was granted.
Leaders Report
We started the year off great with numbers ever increasing and things were starting to look better, then COVID hit. This was devastating as a charity not being able to raise funds and no
support, thank goodness for the Job Retention Scheme without it our valuable preschool wouldn’t be here today.
Most of our money during this time was making sure the valuable staff stayed loyal and we didn’t lose any of them as it had taken us ages to get them, and the children had bonded well with them.
We continued to carry on, in the belief it wouldn’t be long, before this situation improved.
During this difficult time, we also helped the school and parents still giving 100% service and always going above and beyond, which is what we are known for. We continued to provide support for key workers and support for our parents while going through such a difficult time.
We also like so many businesses believed this unpresented time would be short lived and not continue for a year.
