The number **Summary of the main** of children attending the setting increased with an influx of families to the **achievements of the charity** area following the COVID-19 pandemic. Our strong ethos and the style of **during the year** the setting has meant that the preschool has been a popular choice for new parents, with many placing their children on a waiting list for future spaces at the setting. Our fundraising activities included a very successful Bingo fundraiser where funds were raised for a new summer house and shed. The summerhouse is particularly useful as a learning space in which the ‘rising-5’s’ can start their preparation for transitioning to reception class in the local Primary School. Our forest school has continued to be very popular, and this fits in perfectly with our ethos of encouraging outdoor play.  The same can be said for our wonderful garden.
