## **Chairs Annual Report** 

## **2020-2021** 

## **Whitley Community Pre School** 

## **1[st ] December 2021** 

This year has been a difficult year due to Covid-19, with the preschool needing to close for a large portion of 2020 and some of 2021. A big thank you to the staff for staying so committed to the preschool and to parents for the hard work they put in at home with the children while we were unable to provide our usual care. 

## **Admissions** 

Admissions into Preschool is always a big focus for the committee. We have been working hard behind the scenes to increase our advertising to hopefully bring more children into the school. Admissions was extremely difficult during the pandemic and we are lucky enough to end the financial year with a healthy number of children. 

## **Staffing** 

We are very happy to say that we end this year with all of our wonderful staff. Vicki, Leanne, Gail, Liz and Kirsty are a wonderful asset to the Preschool. Our staff work brilliantly together and continue to support each other with their work. Staff worked well over lockdown and came back out of lockdown with a positive attitude to ensure a smooth return for the children. 

## **The Children** 

Our children have coped brilliantly with their return to preschool. They have thrown themselves back into preschool life, enjoying plenty of activities including crafts, cake decorating and lots of outdoor play. The children have also been coping well with the uncertainty of second lockdowns and potential lockdowns in the future. 

## **Village Hall** 

We have continued to work well with the village hall committee and have been supported by the members during the pandemic as the main users of the village hall. 

## **Fundraising** 



Fundraising came to a halt during lockdowns and is something we are looking to return to in the future. 

## **The Committee** 

The 2020 -2021 committee: 

Chair – Alex Swinden 

Treasurer – Paula Helm 

Secretary – Leanne Edwards - Bernard 

Further members – Sophie Bratherton, Abi Devine, Nicole Greenall, Charlotte Pitchford and Sarah Mcloughlin-Abrahams 

Moving into the New Year the Committee plan to continue working alongside staff to improve the admissions into preschool using advertising and word of mouth. We plan to help staff with returning to normal preschool routine after the pandemic. We also plan to continue to work with Friends of Whitley School to fundraise for our preschool as we rely heavily on this each year. The Committee welcome all parents who would like to join the committee, any help is greatly appreciated.
