## **ST JOSEPH’S PLAYGROUP, HERTFORD** ## **TRUSTEES REPORT** ## **CHARITY NO: 1089180** St Joseph’s Playgroup is an Ofsted registered playgroup located on the grounds of St Joseph’s RC School in Hertford. It provides pre-school education to children aged between 2 and 4 years old. Morning sessions run from 9am to 12pm Monday to Friday. It also provides a lunch club between 12pm and 1pm for children over the age of 3 years. Afternoon sessions run from 12pm to 3pm, these are available to the Nursery children at St Joseph’s School. Playgroup children can also access afternoon sessions the term after they turn 3. The Playgroup has an Admissions Policy in place which welcomes all children from the local area, prioritising those of Catholic faith and with siblings at St Joseph’s School. Our fees are kept in line with other similar settings within the area at £15 for a 3-hour session. We accept 2 and 3 year old funding, tax free childcare accounts, childcare vouchers and 30 hour funding. Playgroup has adapted well during the pandemic. Staff, parents and children have all coped with government announcements and fast changing guidelines. Teachers have used online learning journal, tapestry, to include children who have been isolating, reading them stories and setting work. It has been difficult to raise funds in the usual ways due to gatherings being banned. Our fundraisers did organise some great fundraising activities including Halloween dressing up week, the children made firework canvases and we also sold personalised Christmas baubles. Surplus funds at this year end are to be invested in our outdoor space and lower playground. Plans include laying new bark and repairing decking. We also hope to install a climbing frame and slide for the children. ## **CLAIRE SCALES** ## **TRUSTEE** ## **St Joseph's Playgroup** ## **INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2021** ## **INCOME** _**Previous Year**_ Fees received Funding Fundraising (net) Lunch Club and afternoon fees Snack contributions Total Income |**INCOME**|| |---|---| |**_2019-2020_**
