Charitable activities
Sun Beams offers full day care, incorporating pre-school, breakfast and after school clubs operating from a rented purpose built facility within the grounds of Delapre School.
Our Breakfast Club and After School Club are valuable assets which are designed to help families to balance their work and family commitments, whilst knowing their children are safe and cared for on the school site.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
Encouraging Learning and Development for each individual child has been a high priority this year. The staff team have concentrated hard on individualising our planning to ensure that key workers produce individualised planning for their key children based on observations. We have continued to work hard on developing good relationships with parents and carers. We have kept parents well-informed of their child's progress and allow them to view and contribute to their children's learning journeys.
