Northern Pastures Preschool
Treasurer’s Report
Finances for the fnancial year 2021-2022
Overall, for the year ending 31[st] March 2022, Northern Pastures Preschool suffered a decreased meaning that the money coming into preschool was Less than what was spent by £- 5.541.40 Our spendings was increased greatly towards the end of the financial year due to the lack of support from Funding government team.
Preschool had a total income of £63.539.76 which was £13.028 less than the previous year. This was generated most from fees payable by parents, funding from the government and committee fundraising activities.
The expenditure for the year has increased by £3,347.56 to £68.504.29 in comparison to £65.156.73 last year. Wages have increased by £444.34 to £49,803.68 compared to £49.359.34 last financial year.
The expenditure on rent, wages, trainings were increased, but at the same time pensions and toys expenses were decreased.
Due to the lock of funding, this meant that important events such as the easter bonnet parade and easter egg hunts could not go ahead again as planned, events which raise vital funds for the preschool.
The unusual circumstances that the preschool has found itself in at the end of the financial year resulted in the committee and preschool staff working extremely hard to secure the financial future of the preschool. Meaning that in the future if we need to, we are going to use our Holding account, to use the money that we received from the Coop fundraiser.
I have included a copy of the accounts with this report for your reference and an overview of our four bank accounts:
-
Fundraising account is solely for all our activity contributions and any form of fundraising received. Anything purchased with fundraising money is transferred to the current account.
-
Current account is for paying wages, utility bills, and the income of parent’s fees and funding.
-
Savings account is a contingency account for unexpected expenses and/or closure. We are required under the Charities Commission rules to keep sufficient funds in this account to cover redundancies in the event of the preschool having to close due to the circumstances beyond our control. At present, we have £10,340.11 and we are looking to increase that this year. This will need to be constantly monitored and reviewed by the committee.
-
Holding account is an account in which parent deposits are held until we can then transfer back into our account for the child’s final invoice
payment. This we are not at liberty to use the money and be left empty pocketed at the time of the invoice.
