ST LEONARDS PRE-SCHOOL
TRUSTEES REPORT 2024/2454
Although the preschool has done well financially and has sufficient numbers of children, the trustees who wished to retire were unable to recruit any new trustees.
Therefore the sad decision was taken to close the preschool as it could not continue without trustees or a committee.
The preschool therefore closed on the 31[st] August 2025 and all staff were made redundant. After redundancy payments and other expenses relating to the closure the balance of preschool funds is to be paid to the Early Years Alliance, in accordance with it’s constitution.
