Development, Activities and Achievements

I am pleased to report on another great year for Barham Preschool. During the year we said goodbye to our long serving Manager Rebecca Starr who has given incredible service to the preschool during her tenure. The committee would like to put on record its thanks to Rebecca for all her incredible work.

Just after the end of the financial year we welcomed our new manager and two new Preschool staff members to our preschool family. All our staff members have worked very hard again this year alongside our dedicated committee members to ensure the smooth running of our preschool.

We continue to maintain our good financial position. Thanks to our preschool families and our local community for their support on our fundraising efforts. Our Easter sponsored

Hopathon event was a big hit and very well enjoyed by everyone that attended. In the summer our preschool leavers and new prospective children enjoyed a party with an entertainer and a cake sale. It was a lovely morning, all the children fully enjoyed themselves! We are now busily preparing for our exciting Christmas event and our everpopular raffle to raise important funds for our preschool. The children will be putting on their first ever Nativity, which is very exciting for them and all their families.

We will be looking into ideas for new resources for our setting, possible trips out for the children and also an extra canopy for our garden area. We are excited for the future and for all the new ideas that our new manager and staff will bring to the setting.

Well Done everyone for all your hard work once again and looking forward to another fantastic year.

Financial Review

The pre-school is in a stronger financial position than last year, when we were still recovering from the effects of the pandemic. By the end of the year we had increased our financial reserves by £15,198. Our income increased by 6.8% on the prior year. Expenses also increased as we returned to full staff headcount and purchased equipment, that was deferred during the pandemic.

We have an operational bank balance that will withstand significant shocks. Plus we have a reserve account that holds funds necessary for the winding up of the pre-school if an existential issue arose.

We are marginally profitable on our day to day operations, however the fund raising activity that is undertaken remains a significant benefit when it comes to being able to make investments in the preschool.

This sound financial footing meant we were once again able to invest in community centred schemes like the toddler group.

Financial Outlook for 2022/23

Overall, I see the outlook for 2022/23 as more challenging. There will be an increase in costs that will arise from the increase in the living wage. Plus our income will be under pressure given the increased financial challenges facing parents and Kent Council County. These factors mean we will need to maintain strong financial discipline over the pre-school during 2023.
