Treasurer's Report- 1711112021 Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their continued support over this very different and challenging year. The staff, the committee, the children and parents for all being so supportive and flexible, this has really helped us continue to open and provide childcare for those that needed us most. Our accounts run from April 2020 to March 2021, this covers a whole year of being disrupted by Covid and includes three lockdown periods, the first when we only opened to key worker children. With thi5 in mind. you will see that we have made a substsntial loss this year of £6959.40, fortunately the previous year we made a substantial profit of over £21,000 and this has enabled us to stay afloat and continue to pay our staff the wages they would have received had it been a normal year. We were also lucky that the council continued to pay the grant income for 2, 3 and 4 year old's based on the children who should have been attending Pre- School, even if they didn't. this especially refers to the summer temi when most children were not attending. l am aware that we now look at ourselves as one organisation. Maiden Newton Childcare Provision and this is how I have presented the figures to yourselves by just giving you one set of figures, however for my own interest and as advised by the lady that audits the accounts, I have broken this down between Pre and After School. It is obviously dI￿lcult to break some of the figures down. but any costs that relate to the building or the setting as a whole lelertric. water. wages. insurance. Ofsted registration). or any items of equipment that will be used by both settings and also the proftts from donations and fund rdising events, I have divided in half. It has shown this year that if they were classed as stsnd alone organisations. Pre-school would have made a profit and After School a loss, this is due, as mentioned above that Pre-school continued to receNe funding, which would have covered staff wages. whereas the children attending After School was so few. that the income from fees would not have covered wages, let alone any other expenses. Figures for income during 2020121 are all down from 2019120. as to be expected due to Covid. We were unable to hold any fundraising events. but did manage to have one Rag Bag collection which raised £105.00. Thank you to everyone for their donations and to those who sort and send it off. We have also raised a small amount from the sale of uniform. During 2020121 we continued to receive a grant due to Jackie Young's degree and this 8oes a long way to paying for trainin& items to enhance the children's learning and many otherthings. Most of the expenditure headings during 2020121 have dropped. again due to Covid. W3ges however did increase, as we continued to pay staff throughout and a slight pay rise was awarded in April 2020. Also stationary increased due to my expenses for ink and paper, as I had not put in a claim for nearly three years. Consumables dropped due to not needing to feed as many children both at Pre and After School. Equipment and Sundries were high the prewous year, due to purchasing much needed equipment and making several improvements to the outside area with the new cover and the painting of the fence, but this year we have kept our spend to a minimum, as we were not sure how things would pan out with the Covid situation. Mileage was zero due to all training being online. Numbers are currently low at Pre•School. but they are increasing slowly and numbers at Beanz are still restricted to ensure we follow our risk assessment. We are currently only taking regular bookings, but hope to be able to go back to occasional bookings in the near future. I would just Ilke to take this opportunity to thank all the staff for their support, especially our Manager, Jackie and Beanz Manager, Hannah and 3150 our Chairperson, Theresa, who. although unable to come out to the setting due to Covid restrictions, has been supporting from afar. Finally, I would like to thank Natasha Pidgeon very much for auditing the accounts for us. ft is appreciated and I have purchased a small gift as a token of our appreciation. If you have any questions. please ask and I will try to answer them.
