The Trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022. The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on Page 1.
Objectives and activities
Objectives
The objective of the pre-school is to enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through community groups.
Main activities to achieve the objectives
All our activities are based on the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum set by the department of Education and these can be structured by means of an organised activity i.e. number painting or by free play activities where the children make their own decisions on what activities they would like to do. i.e. role playing using dressing up clothes.
Achievements and performance
The preschool has performed satisfactorily in the year and has achieved the objectives outlined above.
Financial review
Funding sources
The main source of income is from government funding and fees paid by parents.
Reserves Policy
The total unrestricted fund as at 30 September 2022 amounted to £19,884. This is maintained to cover any unforeseeable expenses and for the expansion of the nursery.

Report of the trustees (continued) For the year ended 30 September 2022
Future Plans
To continue to run the nursery and gradually improve and expand the services provided by raising awareness and promoting it through various events and advertising.
Responsibilities of the Management Committee
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year. In preparing these financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper account records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2009. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Members of the Management Committee
Members of the Management Committee, who are directors for the purpose of company law and trustees for the purpose of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1

Independent examiner’s report to the management committee on the unaudited financial statements of Weeley Rainbow Pre-School Limited
We report on the accounts of Weeley Rainbow Pre-School Limited for the year ended 30 September 2022 set out on pages 5 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of management committee and independent examiner
As the management committee you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts, you consider that the audit requirement of section 28 of the Charities Act 2006 (the Act), as amended by section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act, as amended; to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, as amended; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as the whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention;
-
(i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
-
(ii) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Income from investments is included in the year in which it is receivable.
