## **`SECTION 1 – OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES`**
```
The aim of the Preschool is to enhance the learning and development of children
primarily under the statutory school age following government guidelines set out
through the Early Years statutory framework through the Early Years Foundation Stage.
The Preschool works in partnership with parents within the area to understand and
provide a service for all children within the local community. The Preschool does
this by:
```
- `a) Offering appropriate play, education and care facilities in an enriching and nourishing environment. This is done by offering parents extended hours to fit their needs and offers parents the rights to take responsibility to become involved in activities and opportunities for their children regardless of their race, culture, religion, means or ability.`
- `b) The Preschool studies and observes the needs of such children and their families by promoting public interest and in turn recognises and supports the needs within our local community.`
- `c) Adhering to the aims and objectives of the Preschool Learning Alliance and working closely with parent partners and governing bodies such as Ofsted the Preschool delivers a safe, nurturing and affordable Preschool for children to learn and grow.`
```
We confirm the Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity
Commission on public benefit.
```
## `Activities`
```
The term time only Preschool offers a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment for
children aged 2,3 and 4 years old. The Preschool offers a huge range of resources and
activities for children to explore and extend their development throughout the Early
Years Foundation Stage. The Preschool use statutory guidelines and aid development of
all children who attend the setting through observation of learning. Government
funding for eligible children is allocated in accordance to guidelines to ensure it
is used to fund and support the children’s learning environment.
```
## **`SECTION 2 – ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE`**
```
The Preschool continue to provide nurturing, safe, quality affordable childcare
within the local community. We continue to improve our setting within our financial
constraints and using observations of the children within their play we as a setting
have been growing areas within the setting to offer enticing and enriching
opportunities.
```
```
During this financial year the Preschool have moved to a new premises within the
grounds of Alverstoke Infants School. We are still running as a separate entity to
the school but within the school grounds.
```
```
As a result of moving to a new premises the number of children that we can now have
in the preschool at any one time has reduced to 21, however over time we will look at
options to increase this.

**`TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT`**
## **`SECTION 2 – ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (continued)`**
`The new premises offers lots of outdoor learning opportunities for the children, including a woody walk, trim trail and a sensory garden. We also have access to a playground where the children can freely ride bikes and scooters etc in a safe environment.`
`The new premises is also close to the beach, meaning we have the opportunity to take them on trips to the beach when the when ratios allow.`
## **`SECTION 3 – REVIEW OF FINANCIAL POSITION`**
`The Preschool had a deficit of £2,924 compared to a deficit of £15,917 in the previous year. Over this financial we the preschool has been working on reducing the financial deficit we have seen over the past years. We did this by moving premises, reducing our rent significantly and also by removing unnecessary outgoings. This was all completed in the hope that going into the next financial year we would be in a much better position.`
## `Reserves`
`We currently hold a reserve fund of around £15,000 in a separate account, the aim of this is to sustain the daily operation of the Preschool should the income levels fall below the expected. Alternatively, in the unlikely event the Preschool should need to close the reserve fund would be used to cover staff redundancies.`
## `Principle sources of funds (including fundraising)`
`Our primary source of funding is from the Government. The Preschool received 83% from Government funding, this was received termly from Hampshire County Council. The Preschool received 17% from fees for non-funded hours.`
`The Preschool is also registered as a charity through HMRC and is eligible to claim gift aid on qualifying donations.`
## **`SECTION 4 – STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT`**
`The Governing Document for Alverstoke Preschool is the ‘Preschool Learning Alliance – Model Preschool Learning Alliance Constitution 2011’. We are members of the Preschool Learning Alliance, and adhere to their guidelines. Alverstoke Preschool is an unincorporated Charity, and its Trustees are elected by Members.`
