Directors Report
The Directors have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 July 2021.
Principal Activities and Business Review
The principle activity of the company during the year was that of a Preschool.
The Sombornes’ Preschool aims to provide high quality, affordable, sessional care for children in non-domestic premises, in and around the community of Kings Somborne.
Its objectives are to provide children between the ages of 2 and 5 with the ability to interact with other children and adults, to develop social skills that aid transition to school life and provide a stimulating environment within which children can learn, in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (“EYFS”). Children are able to develop at their own pace, both physically and creatively in a warm, friendly atmosphere.
We aim, through our links to the village primary school, to provide a seamless transition for the children from the preschool to when they start mainstream education.
We also aim to provide ongoing training for the staff, in accordance with the EYFS. The preschool accepts children with special needs and ensures that staff training is in place to support them.

Independent examiner's statement I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: · the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or · the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or · the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
