TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
September 2024:
We initially started the academic year with 19 children and 9 staff to cover the hall rent we had to borrow money from our reserve as our balance stood £3,895.95. It was a very quiet beginning.
October and November : On October 5 new children started, and we had 24 children and 9 staff altogether.
December:
December: We had our Christmas Jumper Day, but no donations were received. During the Christmas Tree Festival, we raised £68.00. The Nativity took place in the church with Sarah’s permission. Santa also visited and gave gifts to the children. We held the Christmas staff dinner at a Turkish restaurant, and each staff member received £75 as a Christmas gift.
January February:
We started the year with 21 children. We created banners and leaflets for distribution. We requested permission from the church to display a banner in front of the church, and the request is still being processed. We want the banner to remain up throughout the day instead of being taken down at 3 PM. Displaying the banner has already resulted in three new children joining. We believe having a banner in front of the church is essential, as many parents are unaware that Abacus operates at this location.
March and April :
The number on roll picked up and we had 29 children. From March we hired back the lower hall. Because we had many 2-year-old children It was very busy, and the rent went up.
May: Everything was smooth and as usual busy month. In May we appointed a Korean staff member, which has significantly helped us in attracting new Korean children.
June / July :
In June our administrator Shrutee resigned due to her family circumstances to go to Nepal. As usual we all were busy as it was nearer to the academic year. The staff had to finish the transition reports to give it to the schools. We had our Annual Farm trip to the Hobble down farm in July. Also the sports meet took place in the school. We had year-end party for the kids, and we had staff Dinner in Cappadocia restaurant. Throughout the year we had Our Inclusion Officers coming in to help with the Special Educational needs to advice the staff to help with the provision.
