St Albans Steiner Kindergarten, Fleetville Community Centre, St Albans Tel: 07970 117251

Welcome to the AGM. May 26[th] 2021 Meetings are being held via ‘Zoom’.

At present we have 18 children attending the kindergarten. We have continued to use ‘Zoom’ when children are needing to stay at home. 12 families are regularly attending the Parent and Child session on Fridays.

We have had changes in staffing. This has been due to the Covid pandemic, struggling to juggle the needs of family and kindergarten.

Financially, we still have a healthy bank balance with £16,000, in the account. Due to the pandemic, we have not been able to do any fund raising.

At the beginning of the pandemic, the town council proposed to rebuild the community centre, agreeing that they will cover the costs.

The design has had input from the community centre trustees. The kindergarten is expected to be part of the new building. Zanna is still a trustee at the Centre. There are plans to provide temporary accommodation for the kindergarten and other regular users including outdoor play space from this summer whilst work is underway.

We are waiting for an Ofsted visit, as one was due last year.

We all continue to enjoy working in the kindergarten, but all the staff have two jobs, in order to maintain a reasonable standard of living, and this is a concern for the future of the kindergarten.
