Chairman’s Report 2023
It has been another busy but successful year for Honeypots. The nursery continues to go from strength to strength. This year we had our Ofsted inspection, the staff worked hard to showcase our nursery and we were awarded with the grade GOOD. This is a great achievement for the nursery. Whilst we have seen a few staff changes, the nursery and staff continue to support your children.
The nursery continues to work towards The Early Years Commitment which focuses on the development of children’s speech and language and vocabulary development.
Fundraising this year has allowed us to replace all our puddle suits for the children. Thank you to you all for supporting the fundraising efforts of the nursery, however it must be noted that the nursery staff cannot continue to provide fundraising events etc without the help of parents. We currently do not have anyone on our fundraising committee. If you would like to join, please come, and see one of the staff.
The finances of the nursey continue to be monitored very closely. Unfortunately, due to the battalion move we are still finding ourselves in a position where we have a low number of children. This does not get better in September. The current welfare officer has helped us to secure funding which will help support us.
We are desperately seeking members for the committee including a new treasurer and secretary. If you are interested in becoming involved with the Management Committee, please speak to staff in nursery for more information. We urgently require more Committee members to help the nursery move forward.
Chelsea and all the staff would like me to thank all the parents for their continued support.
Anthony Goth Chairperson of Honeypot’s Management Committee.
