achievements
ofthe charity
during the year||||During this period we have been open 5days a week for 38weeks ofthe
year. We have been open throughout
the lockdowns
and have increased
our opening
hours to now include Tuesday and Wednesday
afternoons.| |||||, We provided
term time childcare
in accordance
with the requirements
of| |||||the Early Years Foundation
Stage Framework,
Ofsted Framework
and| |||||the requirements
ofthe Gloucestershire
Early Years team.| |||||It has been another very challenging
year due to the pandemic.
We were| |||||~ only able to carry out 1 main fundraising
event —the Christmas
Nativity.
,'This fundraising
provides
useful additional
funds for resources,
However,| |||||the other planned
events were forced to be cancelled. Parents have| |||||contributed
with some donations of items playgroup
required
and money.| |||||We have continued
to foster strong
links with local Primary Schools and| |||||, continue to work with other local settings to share good practice.
Itwas| |||||unfortunate
that no school visits were able to take place this year. But the| |||||Reception Teachers from the Primary Schools were able to visit us| |||||instead to meet the pre schoolers. We have received good support and| |||||advice from the Early Years Team at Gloucestershire
County Council and| |||||from PATA.| |||||, The Chair and Treasurer ofTrustees changed
at the AGM in November| |||||' 2020 and the Secretary remained
unchanged.| |||||We continued
to provide the extended
opening
hours, being open 5days| |||||per week and continued
to provide a total of27.5 hours ofa provision a| |||||, week and places for children
from 2years upwards,| |||||, We had good child numbers
evenly spread across the five days and the| |||||' numbers
rose steadily throughout
the year.| |||||We chose to ensure we had a more stable level ofstaffing going forward.| |||||,'Ensuring
that we have 4 members
ofstaff working
everyday.
We felt it| |||||would be hugely beneficial forthe children
to have extra staff on hand. As| |||||' well as staff feeling more valued and hopefully
retained as they are not| |||||having
their hours changed
according to children's
numbers.| |||||We have continued
to successfully
deliver provision
of the extended 30| |||||hours childcare and Tax-free childcare
(beginning
September 20'I 7), We| |||||have provided
support to parents to enable them to sign up and access| |||||these additional
benefits. We have also continued
our membership
of| |||||' childcare voucher schemes.| |||||The staff coped amazingly
welt during the pandemic
and have adapted to
the 'new normal'
way ofworking. A new policy and risk assessment
for| |||||Covid19 was created and the staff applied
itto playgroup
to ensure the| |||||l safety ofour children
and staff. It has been a real challenge.| |||||, We were able to maintain
the business
and in fact increase turnover
and| |||||no staff were furloughed.
We felt it was important
to retain our wonderful| |||||staff.| |Brief statement
