Review of Progress and Achievement 2020/2021
Newton Nursery is a Sun Safe nursery. Newton Nursery has a waiting list for children wanting to start at the nursery. Newton Nursery continues to be members of Ashfield Play Forum and for an annual fee they can obtain free resources, they have also donated items to Ashfield Play Forum which they no longer need. One of our staff members volunteers for the Ashfield Play Forum. We advise and share good practice with other Early Years settings (Tupton Nursery School and Morton Primary School reception class). We support other charities by sharing donations of items we do not need. We support local businesses by hiring their services, (accountant, sign maker, Lion Learners, carpets).
We signpost parents to other organisations and professionals as and when needed. We work with other professionals as and when needed.
All staff were in contact with their key children’s parents/carers during lockdown offering advice and activities for the children to do. They continue to work with parents/carers since their return with any worries/problems they have.
Finances
Newton Nursery fees remain £15 per 3-hour session. We decided to keep the fees the same to help parents who may be struggling with the rising cost of living Our insurance costs have increased due to the insurance company’s annual increase. The attached financial statement shows the current state of the finances. The Trustees are working on ideas for fund raising and applications for grants so that Newton Nursery can continue to operate.
Due to COVID 19 we were unable to run a tombola with the items obtained from Ashfield Play Forum as often as we would have liked. We managed to do one at Halloween and again at Easter though. Now that restrictions have been lifted, we are hoping to have one more regularly.
The Charity’s funds are held at The Co-operative Bank, P.O. Box 250. Delf House, Southway, Skelmersdale WN8 6WT.
