4. Leaders Report
This term we have 24 enrolled children and currently have 21 that attend daily. We also have a full waiting list until September 2023.
We currently employ 5 staff members, with Rhiannon, Emily, Kelly Lewis and myself working 5 mornings a week: and Kelly Randerson 2 mornings a week.
This month we said goodbye to Caryl who has taken a full time position with Ysgol Feithryn Penparc. We wish her all the best. Job applications have been advertised for Caryl’s job with us and interviews will take place at the beginning of next month.
All staff are now fully DBS checked.
T raining
With regards to training all staff are fully trained with first aid, food hygiene, child protection and Prevent.
The staff are also working extremely hard with their professional development record:
Rhiannon: is currently attending a variety of courses with regards to Additional Learning Needs and transitioning to school. Within the coming month Rhiannon is enrolled on training towards the new Additional needs learning code.
Katie has completed Special Educational Needs Diploma in Level 1, 2 and 3. She is currently working towards a Hygge Nature Study programme which involves us having a greater connection with the outdoors.
Emily has completed the Elklan course which is an accredited course for staff working with speech, language, and communication needs. Within the coming month Emily is attending training on the new curriculum which will come into force from September.
Kelly Lewis has completed an accredited British Sign Language course which she uses on a day to day basis with the children and they enjoy learning new signs every week.
Kelly Randerson has completed the first two units with ‘Camau’ Welsh for beginners and has achieved so much that Early Years Wales have asked her to write a case study for them based on her training.
Conclusion
It has been a very trying year with COVID-19 disrupting life. The management committee have worked extremely hard with keeping playgroup open and the staff have been incredible making sure all planning for activities are up to date and in line with ESTYN requirements, and making sure that all the children feel safe and happy within playgroup. With this in mind Katie and I would personally like to thank all the staff, committee, parents and guardians for their support and commitment to playgroup over the last year.
This strong team effort is what makes the playgroup continue to thrive and ultimately provides a welcoming, enjoyable, and stimulating environment for our preschool children.
