**charity set out in its governing**
**document**|The preschool aims to provide fully inclusive,
affordable, and accessible childcare and education to
pre-school aged children (age 2 – statutory school
age), in a safe and supportive environment and work
in partnership with parents in the provision of this,
regardless of race, religion, disability or ethnicity.| |**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)**|Impstone and Cherry Trees Preschool is the only
charity run preschool within the local area. We are
open Monday to Friday during term time and offer
funded and affordable childcare and education to
children aged 2 to statutory school age, on a sessional
or day basis, with additional lunch clubs, earlier starts
and later finishes available.
Children are cared for by qualified paid staff who have
shown great dedication and commitment to the
preschool and have worked hard to become an
effective team under the Manager’s leadership. The| preschool has a deputy who oversees the staff and reports to the manager. The team takes part in necessary training on a timely basis relating to all parts of the statutory framework with regards to Safeguarding and First Aid. There has also been training to all the staff relating to the use of Makaton, symbols and visuals to aid communication for all children. The team has worked efficiently to provide a nurturing, stimulating and educational environment where the children learn through investigation and imaginative play, as well as structured learning activities on an individual or group basis. The children are encouraged to develop their awareness of others and understanding of differences, as well as developing life skills, such as sharing, co-operation and negotiation. Staff with specialist roles continue to help the setting manage areas of need, specifically in Behaviour Management and Speech & Language, where activities and resources to target and encourage children are planned for and provided, especially as we see a higher number of children with needs in these areas. The preschool continually reviews their working practices and seek the advice of support agencies to ensure continued improvement and have policies and procedures in place to ensure their legal and regulatory compliance. The preschool actively encourages parental involvement in the management of the preschool and the development of their children, both within the setting and at home. The management team continue to build on the links with the feeder schools. The manager also leads a local cluster group for all preschools and nurseries which ensures all are benefiting from a depth of knowledge and sharing of experiences and training to provide the best opportunities for all the children. The parents and children have supported the preschool through fundraising activities held on sports day, Christmas and Easter celebration as well as Mother’s and Father’s days and the end of term ‘graduation’. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** The committee is run on a voluntary basis and meets every term to hear the Managers report and plan special events and fundraising. THANKS Huge thanks go to the committee Chair (Jenny Marshall) who has been an amazing support with her knowledge of education, special needs and all things Early Years. Coming from a senior leadership role within a large special needs school, she is able to support the manager in various aspects within the preschool. Thanks also go to the Treasurer (Christine McGarvie) who has given time to ensure banking procedures have been undertaken in a timely manner and also taking a very active part in helping to raise awareness for any funds we may be entitled to. As always, a big and special thanks must be given to Amanda for her selflessness, drive, determination and unwavering dedication in the management of the preschools and for ensuring its continued growth and reputation within the community. She leads by example and works over and above her job description and remit. Amanda is immensely well respected by parents, staff and other settings in the local area. Amanda works incredibly hard to ensure the smooth running of the preschool and education and welfare of all the children. She worked tirelessly to ensure high standards were set and adhered to and we are confident that an OUTSTANDING grade is only a hairsbreadth away – next time! Finally, the committee as a whole extend their grateful thanks and appreciation to ALL the staff for the dedication, hard work, flexibility and commitment they have shown and continue to give to the pre-schools. |**Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)**|**Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)**| |---|---| |You**may choose**to include further

**achievements of the**
**charity during the year**|The Committee met when possible, during the school year to
discuss fundraising events. Financial meetings were held on
site with the chair, accountant, treasurer and manager to
ensurefinances continued to be used effectively.| The new school year in September started very well with a record number of children on the books for that time of year and although we were only utilising the small hall, we managed very well. October saw us undergoing an Ofsted inspection. Always a stressful time for the staff. However, as always, everyone rose to the occasion and Ofsted were very pleased with what they saw. We had many outstanding features and received an overall grade of Good. Not bad considering our change of environment and all the external distractions. We continued to work with both the hall committee and Parish Council throughout the last few months of the refurbishment and owe them huge thanks for their continued support and believing in the success of the preschool. The new year in our new hall was such an exciting start to 2024. It was so lovely to have everything set out and ready for the children. Staff really appreciated not having to put equipment out at the beginning of a session and away again at the end. Displays and pictures can now be left out for the children to see. It’s such an inviting area for children to learn and have fun in, meet their friends and build on their knowledge. The new hall has allowed us to extend our opening hours and after feedback from parents, this means we now open 8.30am to 4pm every day. We continue to provide great expertise to children with additional needs, offering specific care for those individual children on a 1:1 basis. We are recognised by families whose children require this support, again through word of mouth on our abilities to engage their child, no matter their need, supporting their learning and helping them grow at a pace suitable for them. The new sensory classroom is well equipped to meet the needs of, not just our SEN children, who benefit from a smaller space and the tranquil calm, but everyone who ventures in to explore and play with this wonderful interactive equipment. We now have a relaxing space in which to chill and we will be investing in an interactive board, bubble tube, and many more sensory toys. Just outside the preschool hall is a covered area which has some larger equipment and can be used all year round. It leads onto the garden, which will be a great space for the children to run around in and let off steam! This area will also be having a major overhaul as at present it is still a mound of earth left by the contractors. We look forward to that work being started soon. Manda and her team continue to provide tremendous care, support and educational opportunities for all the children and their families. The knowledge, expertise, and enthusiasm they all demonstrate is second to none. Impstone and Cherry Trees Preschool really is the best preschool and I am proud to be working with them! Committee We continue to maintain our committee membership focusing on highlighting the importance of the committee as part of the preschool’s running. As always, our thanks go to all the current trustees for their support, and to all our Family Members without whom our successes would not have been so great. . |**Section E Financial review**|**Section E Financial review**| |---|---| ||| |**Brief statement of the**
