## HENDREDS TRUSTEES PRESCHOOL REPORT Academic Year 2020-2021 Notwithstanding the challenges presented by Covid-19 the pre-school continues to thrive. The staff managed the situation admirably, reassuring parents and children alike. Many other pre-schools in the area never re-opened following the government lockdowns. Hendreds pre-school is proud of the fact it managed to do so, operating bubbles so that children could continue to attend pre-school and have some structure and continuity in what were undoubtedly uncertain times. There have been some staff changes over the last year due to two members of staff being on maternity leave but matters have already settled. Abby Cox has stepped up as acting supervisor [having been recruited as deputy only 1 month before] but with the support of the strong existing staff. One member of staff is undertaking her level 3 which will only add to the strength of the staffing team. Despite those changes and the difficulties the pandemic presented, the children have demonstrated remarkable resilience and continue to thrive at pre-school. We continue to focus on being outside as much as possible, in all weathers as it undoubtedly benefits their wellbeing. This is always well received by parents and indeed is a significant factor in parents choosing to send their children to preschool. We remain keen to optimise marketing of the preschool. The closure of other preschools in the area can only be to our advantage and we have continue to have significant interest from prospective parents. Notwithstanding the marketing strategy, we have strong numbers, operating at capacity, with a waiting list too. Our finances have not been impacted by the pandemic and the balance sheet, including contingency, remains healthy.
