SMILEY FACE NURSERY
TRUSTEES REPORT
FOR THE YEAR TO 31 AUGUST 2023
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND REVIEW OF THE BUSINESS
Smiley Face Nursery was based in Amesbury on the same site as Amesbury Primary School, established in 1985. The Nursery is a registered Charity, which is run by a Committee of parent and early years professionals.
We were registered for 72 children aged from 3 months to 5 years and offering full day care and sessions based around Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)and quality pre-school care and education. The setting was opened 8am – 6pm, Monday – Friday, 50 weeks per year (closed bank holidays).
Our aim was to provide local children with integrated high quality care and education.
Smiley Face Nursery is dedicated to the community and every child’s right to good quality, affordable education and childcare, delivered in a way that enriches and empowers them regardless of race colour or ability.
The Nursery takes a multi-agency approach and had built good links with other services such as Social Services, the police, Health visitors and the Children’s Centre, offering spaces to two year old funded children.
The trustees would again like to thank all the staff, families and the committee for their continued support.
The nursery was place to tender in May 2024 and a new provider was chosen by the local council, which was voted by its members, due to no volunteers for a CIO committee and present member wanting to resign. The new provider took over on the 1st September 2024 and Smiley Face nursery closed the setting on 31st August 2024.
The trustees are working to close the charity down and following their constitution and gaining advice from the Charity Commission as the process is followed.
