SUNNY DAYZ PRE-SCHOOL

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2021. 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 2021, 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.Parents are encouraged to support their child, and the pre-school, by volunteering to help at sessions on an occasional basis.

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.

We are well known for working outdoors providing a wildlife area, educating the children in lifecycles and caring for their world, showing nurture to their environment both direct and indirect.

As well as running the local toddler group, Sunny Dayz has introduced an after school club, collecting older children from the local schools and caring for them until 5pm.

During the year the restrictions introduced as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic changed and the pre-school continued to adapt to these changes.

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.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The Charity aims to have reserves sufficient to cover at least three month's running costs.Reserves at the end of the Accounting Period, amounted to £16,042 (2020: £4,866).

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

FINANCIAL REVIEW

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.

The pre-school was able to fully re-open in September 2020, operating within the restrictions set by the UK government. We were able to welcome back existing families and many newcomers.

The sessions quickly became fully subscribed and with regret we had to turn away some families as our limits had been reached.

As a result of the higher attendance numbers the pre-school's funding has been much higher, however this has also required the employment of additional staff and increased materials costs.

On this basis, the Trustees do not perceive that there is uncertainty pertaining to the Charity continuing as a going concern.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The Charity is controlled by its governing document which is a constitution most latterly amended on the 12th June 2013, a deed of Trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. The type of Governing Document is the "Pre-School Learning Alliance Constitution"

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF SUNNY DAYZ PRE-SCHOOL

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Sunny Dayz Pre-School

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Sunny Dayz Pre-School (the Trust) for the year ended 31 July 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
