The objectives of Cylch Meithrin Dinas Powys are to advance and promote the education of pre-
school children in Dinas Powys and the surrounding area. through the medium of the Welsh
language. It is a long established playgroup and prides itself on offering a quality. carin8 leaming
experience for children from the age of two until they commence school. The sessions provide
structured play and educational activities in a safe and stimulating environment.
Review of Arti¥itses and Perfonnance
The Cylch has been successful in providing educational activities for the year for over twenty
children. These session5 provided the children with opportunities to learn through play, consistent
with the themes followed within nursery school sessions.
Each child has the opportunity to take part in various activities that promote all aspects of his/her
development through the medium of Welsh. The setting is well equipped with toys, books, arts and
crafts supplies. as well as various other equlpment to encourage ima8inatNe play.
Futtsre Plans
Following a difficult year with stsff issues, the Cylch is keen to stabilise an(1 expand. With this in mind
the setting has found a new home at the local feeder primary school- Ys801 Gymraeg Pen-v-Garth.
Plans are afoot to develop a purpose built nursery on the school Site, but in the meantime the Cylth
has been given a temporary home in a disused classroom at the school. The committee have been
successful in obtainin8 a grant to pay for improvements to the room and buy extra outdoor
equipment. This new location will allow the Cylch to expand. take on more children, staff and
reintroduce a wrap around service for parents.
The Cylch is registered for tax free childcare and the Childcare Offer to encourage the take up of
new places. The Cylch is also now workin8 Wlth Flying Stsrt to accept more children from low
income families in disadvantages areas.
Flnanclal Revlew
For the year ended 2022 the Cylch operated with a deficit. The trustees felt that thls deficit needed
addressin& and the first step wa5 to increase fees and improve efficiencies in staff costs. The
committee have also since been successful in obtaining grants to support the setting. Hence. the
deficit as at April 2023 has since been recttfied. The Cylch does not have a formal policy on reserves
but does aim to have funds sufflcient to cover at least two months of wage costs.
The Cylch is funded predominantty by private fees whith are charged on a half termly basis at £lS.00
per three and a quarter hours session. Fees were increased in April 2023 to £18 per session. There
ore also a number of children who benefit from the Childcare Offer.
Fundraising was limited during this perKyJ due to Staffing issues and also establishing new
committee members and trustees. Plans for further fundrai&ng in the next financial year have since
been successful.
The majority of the Cylch's expenditure comprises the rtaff costs and the room rental.
