SUNNY DAYZ PRE-SCHOOL
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The objective of the Charity is to enhance the development and education of children, under statutory school age, by providing a safe, secure and happy environment, with appropriate activities and encouragement from adults, where all children can develop their skills and understanding at their own unique pace.
Significant activities
In the Year to 31st July 2020, the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum was followed and the children enjoyed a range of continuous activities, including role play, construction, book corner, puzzles, art and craft, sand and water play and free-flow outdoor activities. Whilst parents are encouraged to support their child, and the pre-school, by volunteering to help at sessions on an occasional basis this was not possible in the second half of the year due to the need to maintain a COVID secure environment.
Public benefit
The Trustees have had due consideration to the Guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. The Trustees have complied with their duty under the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to Public Benefit Guidance. The Trustees believe that the "Beneficial Aspect" is met through the fact that there has been wide-ranging evidence that the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum is fundamental in the development of pre-school children. The Charity is structured in such a manner, under the Pre-School Learning Alliance Constitution, to facilitate maximum development of the children the Charity serves.
The "Public Benefit" aspect is achieved through the Charity serving pre-school children in the community in which it is situated. The fact that the Charity is eligible for Early Years Education Payment Funding, from Hampshire County Council, facilitates the Charity's reach to be to a far-wider reaching demographic. This helps to enable the Charity to achieve a "Public benefit" aspect to its activities, to a far greater extent. The opportunity to benefit is restricted only by age to Children within the pre-school age range. Pre-School education is provided, free of charge (through Government Funding), to Children from Age 3 onwards. Children may attend, before this age, for a small fee. The
payment of this fee may be spread over a period of time, if requested, and allows the older children to receive their place first.
The Trustees are aware, and have regard for the Charities Commission guidance on "public benefit" and take this guidance into account when making a decision to which the guidance is relevant.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities
The pre-school has continued to work towards achieving high standards in its current working practices to ensure that each child receives a high standard of care.
Opportunities for physical development and enjoying the outdoors have continued this year and the children have been involved in with planting, and growing, vegetables and herbs.
The Pre-school also runs the local Toddler Group.
Due to the first national COVID lockdown the pre-school was closed from 20 March to 8 June 2020. During this period the pre-school was ready to offer places to the children of key workers, however there was no uptake of this offer as parents opted to keep their children at home.
When the pre-school was able to reopen it did so gradually starting with two morning sessions each week. The pre-school acquired three tents, which were set up in the garden, to allow 'pods' to operate in an open air setting as much as possible.
Fundraising activities
During the year, the profile of the pre-school was further promoted through various fundraising opportunities and events. Parents, Carers and staff were actively involved in these successful events.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The Charity aims to have reserves sufficient to cover at least three month's running costs.
Total funds, at the end of the Accounting Period, are £4,866 (2019: £7,447).
Going concern
The Charity is reliant on maintaining child numbers and to continue to be in receipt of Grant Funding in the form of "Early Years Education Funding Payment" from Hampshire County Council. At the time of writing the Trustees' Report there is no indication that child numbers will not continue at their current level, and that funding will continue to be received at a consistent level.
During the first lockdown the pre-school received continued funding for the summer term from the Hampshire County Council's "Early Years Education Funding Payment" and with the use of the government's furlough scheme the charity was able to remain in operation and reopened to all children once the lockdown restrictions were lifted.
At the time of the approval of these financial statements the COVID-19 pandemic's 'second wave' has passed and the pre-school remains busy, with increased numbers of children in attendance resulting in higher Early Years Education funding. This has also allowed the pre-school to take on of additional staff.
On this basis, the Trustees do not perceive that there is uncertainty pertaining to the Charity continuing as a going concern.
