Objectives and activities
Summary of the purposes of the charity set out in its governing document
Our primary aim is to provide good quality childcare that is affordable for families in this community, and to attract and maintain an excellent team who in turn provide excellent service. We will consider proposals for growth within our budget and continue to maintain and enhance our premisis and equipment to ensure we offer a play environment that is fun but safe and secure to enjoy the latest technology and areas of exploration both indoors and out.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts
We provide sessional out of school childcare for children aged 9 Months to 11 years old. The sessional care is provided through: Breakfast Club, Playgroup, Afterschool Club, Holiday Club and Nursery provision. We offer play and learning in an environment that encourages creativity, critical thinking, physical challenges and exploration. Staff are highly trained in EYFS and playwork to ensure resources and assessments are carried out to the highest standards that Ofsted and the LA require and to ensure that the children are always making progress on their developmental journey. We also provide CPD for staff to develop and challenge themselves within the environment and for the children in our care. We have developed to provide flexible childcare that the community demands in the everchanging world of parents' / carers' working environment. We offer the Government schemes for 2 year pathfinder, 3 to 4 year old 15 hours and 30 hours entitlements. The trustees consider they have complied with their duties to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the
circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.
Following a period of time that has seen the world face a global pandemic and in the time of a UK-wide cost of living crisis, the setting has managed to continue to provide affordable, flexible childcare in a stimulating and nurturing environment for children aged 9months to 11years including children that have additional needs, are vulnerable or within the care sector. The setting has adapted the way that it works to ensure that the provision can still be purposeful and enriching to fulfil the children learning potential. The manager has completed ELKLAN training level 4 and cascaded knowledge to develier training to the whole team to allow us to achieve communication-friendly setting status. Along with this, we still are part of the ETFY initiative to support children with speech, language and communication needs, and have now attained Step 3. We have seen another staff member successfully achieving childcare qualifications, as well as the Deputy Manager completing enhanced safeguarding and SENCO training, and the Manager completing level 3 SENCO training. In December 2022 we were very pleased to receive a grade of 'Outstanding' from our Ofsted inspection.
Financial review
Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period
This year has seen the setting achieve more positive financial outcome than the previous few years, with a potential profit at the end of the year of around £50,000. Our setting numbers have increased and we have been part of the HAF grant initiative through York Council to give school aged vulnerable children a healthy and physical input in the school holidays.

Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held
We hold reserves to ensure that in the unfortunate event that the club should have to shut down at short notice or through insolvensy we would carry enough to do this in an orderly way to care for our benaficiaries. Our reserves policy is important as it shows the public and funders that we have clarity and openess for holding resereves and to avoid misrpresentation on the clubs financial position. Reserves from time to time can be restricted for the sole use in an event or other opportunities and commitments to the future sustainability of the club may be needed. Designated reservers can be used to save for large scale projects and further charitable purposes.
