Managers Report 2022- 2023 Welcome What an exciting year we have all had since our last AGM! l am personally so proud of all the Team and how amazing they all are. Your children have settled really well, either new to us this September or returning from the summer holidays. We are looking forward to sharing with you all the fun things we do at pip and Jim's via the new parent app. Please speak to me or any of the Team about the app and putting your own observations on. This really helps to enrich the children's vocabulary by talking about what they do at home and gives the children a sense of pride and belonging within their family. Most of the children have now learnt the morning/afternoon routine where they come into pre- school independently. We have started looking at our settings 'Golden Rules, reinforcing their already lovely manners, a true credit to all of you. Moving forward with the preschool, we will be looking to increase our attendee numbers and continue to provide an affordable high quality education to the children. Our app is a great way to communicate with you (and vice versa) even if it's to show you with a picture that your child has settled...the staff truly have magic ways to distract your child when you leave! If you do something exciting at the weekend, post a picture on the At home observations section and then we can talk about it with the children.... We have a SEND co-ordinator- Natalie Bryan. Any queries you may have regarding your Child's health, speech or development please do speak with her or myself. We have an enormous amount of inhouse knowledge and strategies to support children from years of joint experience.. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support and look forward to another fantastic year! J Scarrott
Pip and Jim's Chair Report 2022-2023 This year has been a difficult year for the pre-school both financially and logistically. The setting has been given their notice to leave the current premises and we now need to look at finding an alternate venue to host from. We will be approaching the current trustees for an extension to the current agreement in the hope that we will have more time to find somewhere else to run from. Numbers of attendees has remained low this yearwhich has seen the pre-school make another loss this year, with the yearly rise in national livingwage having a major effect on our outgoings and only a minuscule increase in the government funding rate. We have increased our advertising and flyers have been distributed to all local schools community groups and shops in the hope of gaining more children forthe next academic year. I would like to take this opportunityto thank all the staff and committee for everythingthey have contributed overthis past year and hope for a more financially stable year next year. J Izamis
Treasurers Report 2022-2023 This year has been another extremely challenging year for the Pre-school. The year ended 31 st August 2023, with an overall deficit of £12844.40 somewhat better than the previous year's deficit but still a worry. The Pre-school's income remains majority made up of fees, paid by parents and the government funding. This year the total income was £70181 (£3093.38 higher than previous year). Pre-school Expenditure was £83025.40, a decrease of £9324.98 compared to the previous years. Wages decreased by £746 as a result of staff's hours being reduced further again as perthe previous year. The setting has distributed flyers again this yearto promote the setting, using local schools, shops and community settings to distribute. We are keen to see nextyear an increase in child attendance and a higher rate of funding and fees in orderto hopefully bring down the overall financial deficit. G Orton
