achievements of the
charity, identifying the
difference the charity’s
work has made to the
circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any
wider benefits to society
as a whole.|Para 1.20|There have been plenty of positive
changes within the Nursery as we
continue to go from strength to
strength providing high quality
childcare for 68 children in our local
community between the ages of 0-5.
This year we had 18 preschool children
who we prepared for school readiness.
Our Autumn term activities gave
children the chance to practise skills
from all seven areas of the Early Years
Foundation Stage whilst learning| through play. The children enjoyed lots of outdoor play, including Autumn walks to collect resources to use in our class for Autumn activities. Remembrance Sunday all our children helped to make a poppy wreath and poppy garden that we placed at St Wilfrid’s church in the centre of our village. In the lead up to Christmas families expressed concern about the cost-ofliving crisis. As temperatures plunged, and with surging energy bills, we decided to run a ‘Wrap Up Warm This Winter’ project. Families brought in outgrown Winter coats, and we held an exchange station at Nursery, where they could swap them for a bigger size. It was a great success and we opened it up to the whole village to include adults too. Throughout the year we held free enrichment days, funded by our fundraising activities, allowing all children to access and experience activities they may not have access to at home. We held our annual Halloween party and all the children come along and dressed up. In the lead up to Christmas, we organised free enrichment days for the children to learn and explore the festive season. We dressed up as elves on National Elf Day, wrapped presents, decorated the Christmas Tree, and danced along to Christmas songs. Each child received a story book to take home, while parents were welcomed back in Nursery postCOVID to watch the pre-school nativity performance. With some children not having adequate packed lunches we supplement their day with additional healthy snacks and worked in partnership with the local health team, to educate parents on leading healthy lifestyles and promote the benefits of children under 5 taking vitamins. We organised for all families to receive free vitamins via our local library. As an Act of kindness, the Nursery children made beautiful decorative stones that were taken and placed around the community, in a hope they were found, enjoyed and then re-hid. This really gave the people in our community a sense of coming together during what had been a challenging time, post-Covid. In partnership with the High School, who’s grounds we are located on, we taught 48 Health & Social GCSE students a 38 weeks of learning alongside our own Nursery children. By the end of the year, we employed thirteen members of staff from the local area. One member of staff holds a Qualified Teacher Status, two staff have an Early Years Foundation Degree, eight staff hold NVQ level 3’s. Nursery continued to support two members of staff working towards completing an NVQ level 3. In line with Ofsted all staff members have received up-to-date paediatric First Aid Training. Management have up-to-date Health and Safety training, 4 staff have basic Food Hygiene. Management and the Chair of Trustees have achieved Safeguarding at Level 2 and in-house training has been given to the other members of staff. Various training such as Promoting Positive Behaviour, Inclusion, Wellcomm/Keys to Communication and the updated EYFS training have been attended by various members of staff. Through staff appraisals and supervision, training needs for individual staff are identified and through our Early Year’s consultation meetings with Local Authority we review staff training and attend courses based on what is needed to develop our learning, enhance our provision, and ensure we are meeting the individual needs of children in our care. One member of staff has begun a teacher training degree, while continuing to work in the Nursery during their holidays. This member of staff has gone full circle at the Nursery, having started as a pupil at 2yrs old. She returned to the Nursery as a high school student, as part of their Health and Social GCSE, then worked at the Nursery on placement while studying Childcare at college. We are very proud to see her go all through her education and still be part of the Standish Under 5s family. Quality of teaching, learning and assessment We have high expectation of the standards that children can achieve within EYFS teaching and are responsive to the needs of all our children. Children are making good progress in their learning and development, with Staff knowing the children very well. This combined with an effective ‘Key Person’ system and concise procedures for tracking progress means Staff accurately plan to meet the children’s needs ensuring appropriate challenge and support is provided. We met all our priorities for the year, including supporting staff through training and strengthening our planning system. Our aim was to give children the opportunity to make decisions and choices in their learning by providing a carefully balanced curriculum to include adult and child-initiated learning. Staff used an observation, assessment, and planning cycle to ensure children accessed appropriate learning experiences and made outstanding progress in their learning. Our pre-school staff visited other settings to gain ideas to enhance our pre-school provision. Exciting activities were planned to develop all areas of learning. This ensured that children developed their curiosity, exploration, imagination and - problem solving skills to a high level. **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the
accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011
(“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out
under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I
have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.||| - **Independent** [The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to - **examiner's statement** undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [insert name of applicable listed body]]. _Delete_ [ ] _if not applicable._ I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or - the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or - the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. * _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._ **Signed: Name:** Karen Richardson **Relevant professional** FCCA -0557140 **Date:** 14/11/23 1 **Oct 2018** **IER** **qualification(s) or body (if any):** **Address:** Vermont House, Bradley Lane, Standish, WN6 0XF ## **Section B Disclosure** Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight material matters of concern (see CC32, Independent examination of charity accounts: directions and guidance for examiners). **Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose** . 2 **Oct 2018** **IER**
