Detalls of the Servlce Provislon- continued
Pre-school: Here we continue to provide a welcoming and stimulating environment,
providing a variety of activities and opportunities for the children. These include sand and
water play, construction toys, music and singin& arts and crafts. writing area, mathematics
area. home cornerlrole-play area. as well as opportunities for outside play. We also have a
rolling snack time. when healthy snacks brought in from home are enjoyed. On a Monday
mornin& we run a Forest School session forthe over 3's. We spend the morning in the local
forest. led by a qualified Forest School practitioner. This inspirational process offers all
children regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem through
hands-on learning experiences in a woodland or natural environment with trees. Forest
School is a specialised learning approach that sits within and complements the wider
context of outdoor and woodland edUCat￿n.
We provide a wide and varied curriculum based on the Early Years Foundation Stage. offering
activities and opportunities to enable the children to be confident and independent learners.
The staff use information gained through observation and assessment to inform their
planning to ensure that individual children's needs are met. Individual progress records are
regularly maintained. We ensure that children are invofved in the planning of activities and
parents/committee are involved in the future purchases of equipment/resources by a variety
of means such as discussions and questionnaires. We use the key-person system to enable
us to work closely with families and help us meet individual children's needs and further
enhance the education and care we prOV￿e.
lunch provision.. Parents have the option of extending their child'5 session in pre-school. by
sending in a packed lunch for their child.
Wrop omund core: This financial year. we didn't open up wraparound care. due to lack of
demand and staffing restrirtions.
Holiday club: This year. we didn't run any holiday clubs.
Partnershl
with
arents and local commun
We have outstanding partnerships with parent/carers. We recognise that parents/carers are
their children's primary educators and the importance of working with th05e closest to the
children. We achieve this by ensuring that parentslcarers have the opportunity to discuss
their children's progress with staff through regular meetin85. Staff are available at the start
and end of each session. We actively 5UPPOrt parentslcarers if they wish to attend a session
at the provision or rf they wish to be involved in the organisation of the group by being a
committee mernber or regular volunteer. We held an Open Day in the summer, to encourage
new. prospective families to Vislt and experience our setting for themselves. We have good
links with the local school and continually strive to seek new links within our local community.

Summary of the main achievernents of the charity during the year:
This has been a challenging year for the busine55. Wlth low attendance figures and
three staff member5 leaving. We are grateful for the support of the county council's
Early Years Business Support team. who worked with committee to review the
viability of the business. The outcome of this review was an EGM held in June 2023.
which resulted in all bar one committee member stepping down.
The handover to the new committee with Ofsted went smoothly. with a couple of
delays regarding DBS checks. although the bank handover ha5 been a lengthy proces5.
We successfully recrurted one new member of staff to cover the summer term, who
is now a permanent member of staff.
We benefited from the maintenance undertaken in summer 2022. wrth the new
flooring throughout and the re-decoration of the main room, 8ivin8 us a fresh. clean
space for the children.
The previous Chair reached out to the new Head of LT Primary School regarding the
academWs views on the village pre-school provision. but has not had any response.
We dealt with a large water leak during the Autumn Term and were grateful for the
support of the parish ¢ouncil. who lent us the money to pay the Leak Finder's invoice

Our fundraising requests to Cambridge colleges resulted in a generous donation of
£700 from Trinity College.
We successfully bid for a £5￿ grant from the Rotary club. to cover staff costs.

Plans for
ar ahead
The charity plans to continue the activities outlined above in the forthcoming year,
although we are not offering after hours wraparound care again this academic year.
The new committee is working hard to increase our income and visibility-
The focus is on increasing awarene55 of our pre-school within the local villages and
the wider area and will advertise and promote our services more vigorously. via free
channe15. We need to increase the number of users to ensure longer-term viability.
A5 overhead costs will only go up, especially with another IO% hike in minimum waEe,
the urgent priority remains to increase our income. through both funding and
fundraising.
We still hope to recruit a bank mernber of staff. to take the pressure off staff
sickness/training.
Staff development: continue to identify staff training requirements. HaFf-termly
supervision revIeV￿ and annual appraisals take place.
We will continue to improve the resources in the pre-school.
We will promote the value of becoming a Committee member to maintain a good
balance of old and new members.
The Committee have launched a GoFundMe campaign to appeal to the wider
community for financial support to help us break even this financi31 year.
Committee will also focus on grant opportunities. as well as sponsorship or donations
from local businesses to help fund the deficit.
Committee will revamp the side garden area for outdoor learning and Forest School.
We will continue to use JustGiving as a fundraising platform, as well as investing other
opportunities.
We still have issues with the IT equipment in the office arid need to migrate the
manager to a new laptop and dispose of the legary desktop computer system.
Financial Review
Principal 50urces of funds are from Early Years Foundation Stage funding (which only
accounted for 68% of our income during 2022-231 and parent fee income for pre-school
122%). In the current year. the charity has focused closely on cash flows and ensured costs
are closely monitored. as we experienced a significant deficit. This has been absorbed bv
funds accrued over previous years in the current account.
Fundraising income is used to offset the cost of special purchases of indoor and outdoor
equipment and resoLFrces. as well as improving the garden area for the children to play in.
We held fewer fundraising events during FY 2022-23 due to limited committee capacity. but
will resurrect a calendar of fundraising events for the year ahead.
During 22123. we did raise nearly £2.5k. via a combination of fundraising, donations and
sponsorship. including a cake sale at the Hive, stall at the village dog show, Halloween
activity. a small raffle and a sponsored walk activity. as well as a small donation from
Ama20n Smile. We fundraised in partnership with Friends of Little Thetford School IFOLTSI
with a bingo evening. We a150 appealed to a handful of Cambridge University colleges and
were grateful to receive a cheque from Trinity College for £700. The treasurer also
successfully applied for a £5(X) grant from the Rotary Committee.

FIna￿la1 Revlew- continued
Fees were kept the same rate as last year. to remain competitive. These fee5 are reviewed
annually. We have cash flow forecasts in Pla￿ and income is monitored on a regular
(monthly) basis against the budget.
The Working Family Tax Credit and Childcare Vouther Schemes are promoted in order to
underline the affordability of childcare. We are currently registered with a number of
childcare voucher schemes and will register with new ones when parents/carers request us
to do so.
The highest expenditure was the wage bill. which accounted for 71% of our costs and 88%
of our income. Other significant costs during the Autumn Term were the new fence and the
costs to set up the new IT laptops. We also spent £lk on the man3gerfs Level 3 Forest
School training. which was a specific grant rolled over from a previous year.
We continue to hold a contingency fund of 3 months. running costs.
Reserves Poli
The Management Committee has examined the Charitvs requirements for reserves in light
of the main risks to the orEanisation. tt has established a policy whereby the unrestricted
funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed asset5 held by the charity should be 3
months of expenditure and therefore a target of £25.000 should be held in general funds.
The rese￿eS are needed to meet the working revenue requirements for the charity and the
Management committee are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the
current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.
