REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 October 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The advancement of Education and training, the relief of poverty, sickness and distress, promotion of good health and provision of recreational facilities in the interest of social welfare with the object of improving their conditions of life. The trustees have considered the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and in particular the guidance on advancing education and fee charging. In this respect the trustees have set up a school for children (between the ages of 3 and 5) many of whom are underprivileged with every year extending our facilities by adding a new class. Fees are charged but those in financial hardship are given an allowance or are fully funded, according to circumstances. No child is refused education because of an inability to pay.
Significant activities
The Trustees of the school are pleased to report that despite the significant growth, each child has received personal attention in order to realise their potential. Our devoted staff members have come through as a team to bring out the best in every child. The additions to the building went very smoothly due to the competence of our committed management committee members.
Our out of school hours activities have been very successful, meeting our aims in developing the beneficiaries personal, social and emotional well being, improving the children's chances in life. We thank our donors who made this possible.
We are very grateful to our very many dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly for the success of our organisation.
Public benefit
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aim and objectives and in planning the charity's future activities. The aims of the charitable company for the public benefit are detailed in the Objectives and Activities section of the report.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The reserves policy is to ensure that there is a sufficient stream of income to meet the working capital of the school.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, its memorandum and articles of association, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
It is not currently the intention of the trustees of the charity to appoint new trustees. Should this situation change in the future, the trustees will apply suitable recruitment and training procedures.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BNEI ZION COMMUNITY NURSERY LIMITED
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Bnei Zion Community Nursery Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 October 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of A.C.A which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
