Fernlea Community Pre-school Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees, Annual Report Ilncorporating the Director's Report) (¢¢)nfynvedJ Year ended 31 August 2020 Achievements and perfomiance People: Committee This year saw some changes within the Management COMMItteerUsteeS with the appointment of myself, Carolyn Munns as Chairperson, Simon Berry as Treasurer and Alex Tulip as Secretsry. After many years association with Fernlea, ending up serving on the Committee as Chairperson, Katie Porter resigned in January 2020. We would like to thank her for her Many hours of dedication and friendship. staff Sophie Tudor started her maternity leave July 2019 and we are pleased to say Mum and baby Max are doing really well. Becky McLean re-joined us in September 2020 along with Julie Hillman who joined us as bank stsff. The stsff were due to be allending various courses but due to the Covid 19 outbreak and lockdown these were cancelled. Staff did however complete a number of online training courses. Covid 19: Pre-school went into lockdown with the rest of the country on Monday 23rd March 2020. Athough we could have been open for Key workevs and vulnerable children, the staff13 members) had lo isolate for 14 days due to being in contact with a parent who had been confirmed with Covid 19 that weekend. With the Easter Holidays following, the pre-school didn't open again until Monday the 20th April for keyworker and vulnerable children. With low numbers of children attending, we decided to furlough 4 members of staff, leaving the rest of the staff to cover. At this time we operated with 2 'bubbles' lo keep contact as low as possible. All the advised procedures for health and safely were adhered lo. From the 1st June 2020 we were able lo invite all the children leaving us to go lo school back for as many days as we could safely offer with a maximum bubble allowed of 16. This was tsken up by most of our families Fundraising.. We held fundraising events during the year including Pudsey Bear in November and Noah's Ark in Prince's Mead, Farnborough. Let's hope we can gel back on track in the coming year when normal activities can resume. Children: The children have been very resilient throughout all the changes to their routines. They quickly got into the new practi of parents dropping them al the door and coming into the classroom independently. They also had to get used to a new classroom layout with some of their activities and resources not being acSsible. They did miss some of their friends, but quickly made new connections. Events: Following on from last year's succuss we held separate Christmas parties. Again we were very lucky lo have the help from Lauren's Mum-in-Law who is a professional Christmas decorator, lo sel up the grollo. The Grotto looked amazing and the children enjoyed visiting Father Christmas there. The o parties were a great success with the children having a wonderful lime.Al the end of term, we had a Summer party for our children returning to us in September. We felt this would be nice for our young children lo re-familiarise themselves with us before the long summer holidays.For the children leaving us lo go to big school we did manage to have our Leavers Prom. This year we were not able lo hold the prom at the Village hotel, but, determined our children shouldn't miss out, we transformed our classroom into a spectacular ballroom with voiles, fairy lights, chair covers and, of course, the red carpel. The children really enjoy getting dressed up and had a special lime with the staff before starting theirjourney into 'big' school.
Fernlea Community Pre-school Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees, Annual Report Ilncorporating the Director's Report) (¢¢)nfynvedJ Year ended 31 August 2020 Other work: The ongoing saga of us changing to a Charitable Incorpomted Company IC.I.O.l instead of a Company Limited by Guarantee IC.L.G.I has now been put aside. There were far more complications to the change than we first thought. One of the main issues was the time needed to close the existing C.L.G. Company and re-regisler with Ofsted as a new C.l.O company. Having gone through this process before changing to C.L.G. knowing the amount of work this entails, il was decided that this was not the right lime for Fernlea lo be making such a change. We did, however, change the Objects and Benefits of our Articles and Memorandum in readiness to change our Governing document lo comply with the new C.l.O. fomat. Our plans for an extension lo our building are still on our 'wish-lisV, but due lo a lol of planning issues we are now considering having to settle for a 'garden room, type building. We will let you know as plans go forward with this, even if that may be somewhat slowly. Maintenance work is still needing to be carrièd out on our building and outside area. We look forward to being able to set up a working party in the future when we are allowed to have social gatherings. The future: Our Garden Room building project has not moved any further forward as the committee requested more quotes before signing off. Although this building is very much needed, there has not been the time lo pursue further quotations. We are hoping this will be something to achieve in the future.This last year has certainly thrown some challenges to all sectors, with many plans having to be shelved for the future. We too have much we wish to achieve and look forward lo safer and more 'normal' times for us all when we can gel back on tCk.
