TRUSTEE'S REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

JACK AND JILL COMMUNITY PRE-SCHOOL

The committee presents its report and accounts, for the Charitable Incorporated Organisation, for the year ended 31 August 2020.

1. Legal and administrative

The full name of "the Charity" is Jack and Jill Community Pre-School. It is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by a constitution and, as a registered charity, the requirements of Charity Law. The constitution was signed on 8th March 2015 and amended on 10 July 2017.

2. Aims and organisation

The charity was registered on 8th June 2015 and took over the assets of the charity known as Jack and Jill Pre-school (charity number 1117230) on 1st September 2016.

Trustees are recruited from the pre-school community and are elected at the Annual General Meeting. Trustees serve for two years and may be re-elected for up to three consecutive terms. A chair is the officer of the charity, assisted by a number of committee members who are all trustees. The minimum number of trustees is 3 and maximum number is 12. The committee meets twice a term and establishes the budget and oversees the running of the preschool. Day to day running of the pre-school is delegated to the Preschool Manager.

3. Activities

The main activities of the Pre-school are to enhance the development and education of children primarily under statutory school age, by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of the children through community groups and by:

a) offering appropriate play, education and care facilities, family learning and extended hours groups, together with the right of parents to take responsibility for and to become involved in the activities of such groups, ensuring that the groups offer opportunities for all children whatever their race, culture, religion, means or ability;

b) encouraging the study of the needs of such children and their families and promoting public interest in and recognition of their needs in the local areas; and

c) instigating, adhering to and furthering the aims and objectives of the Pre-School Learning Alliance.

4. Achievements and Performance

The Pre-School achieved a "Good" OFSTED inspection in September 2018, which reflects the inspiring and constant good level of education delivered at Jack and Jill.

The main achievements this year, were:

to successfully re-open the Pre-school after a spell of closure during the first Covid-19 lockdown;
to provide excellent care to families and children alike, especially throughout and following the trauma of the worldwide pandemic;
to navigate significant staffing changes, including the instatement of the brilliant new manager Laura Gummow;
to recruit a new set of trustees for the Pre-school.

All this activity has been undertaken to fulfil the charity’s objectives and the trustees consider that the charity has benefited children from the entire community, regardless of race, culture, religion, means or ability.

5. Review of financial position

Total income for the period was £113,043 (2020 - £126,008) and total expenditure £128,099 (2020 - £114,496). This has been the result of the charitable activity over the year. The charity held cash at bank and in hand of £51,767 at 31 August 2021 (2020 - £74,922). During the year, the charity received grant funding of £500 from Calne Town Council to purchase a gazebo.

The charity holds ring-fenced reserves for the maintenance of the property & equipment of £15,000; and redundancy and maternity pay for staff of £22,800. The balance of funds are used for replenishing minor equipment, staff training and day to day operations. These are added to as funds become available from operating activity. No funds are held as investments and are consequently at no risk. The trustees are confident that the pre-school is in a good financial position to meet its obligations for the foreseeable future.
