## Treasurer report 

The pass year has been challenging, there is now a higher demand for two year old children spaces and those with additional need. As many of the spaces were taken by those children present with additional needs the safe decision that there would be a lower number of admissions to make sure all children’s needs were met safely, this reflected in the grants received.  Staff found that these children with complex needs required more paper work resulting in extra hours being worked. Committee are trying to secure some SEN funding for additional members of staff but this is proving difficult to secure because of the need for the evidence  and parental consent. 

- Paper work has increase Sally Taking point on EHCP’S and Patricia taking point on 2 year olds. 

- Sally is working hard with the inclusion team and other agencies to gain support for our children that are delayed in areas. Sally now has to complete paperwork and health care plans in nursery. We are finding it difficult to find the time in the day for sally complete all paperwork. Training was held on only 1 day for the EHC plan, sally was  unable  to  attend  this  due  to  staff  shortages.  Sally  is  in conversation with parents regarding their child’s development. Early years inclusion team are strained there is no funding available for an additional member of staff or equipment. 

- Local  schools  have  started  to  take  children  mid  term,  we  are working hard to try and transition our children on to primary school. Getting appointment dates with local school is proving hard. 

- Staff are hoping to recruit more committee members to up Fund raising stratergies 

- Providing  snack  for  the  children  is  becoming  more  and  more difficult,  parents  are  reluctant  to  pay for  their  children’s  weekly snack. So Nursery is supply the weekly early years approved menu. 

- Nursery isn’t full due to the high needs of the SEN children . 

- Our waiting list is is long with 15 plus 

- We are working at a loss but trying to bring in children with out the added need for staff as well as trying to fund raise and partake in as many free schemes as possible such as recycle materials as well as donations of time from parents  for story time etc.
