## Fledgelings Pre-School Playgroup Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 July 2021 

The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements for 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 the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **Chair's report** 

Fledgelings has got through another year,and it has been a highly successful one. 

On May the 13th Ofstead visited the setting and due to the hard work and commitment of all staff we received a 'Good' in all areas. We are all extremely proud of this outcome and I would like to say a huge thankyou to the staff for their hard work to achieve this. 

Covid guidance has not changed this year so the staff are still following all procedures to unsure the safety of everyone is the setting. 

The new EYFS framework was introduced in September 2021, with Annmarie now being a key person for children to ensure she has a full working understanding of it. 

The Committee have been having weekly meetings with Annmarie to ensure she has all the support she may need. 

Staff training is all up to date. Fundraising has still been difficult this year due to the pandemic . 

I would like to finish by once again saying a massive thankyou to our amazing staff who do the best for all children that enter through our doors every day. Fledgelings could not run without you and could not be as successful without each and everyone of you. 

Mrs Claire Mcdonald Chairperson Fledgelings Pre School

## Fledgelings Pre-School Playgroup Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees For the year ended 31 July 2021 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

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

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiners statement** 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no 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 Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. 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.
