Leaders Report

Reflections on 22/23

1. Children

Last September saw us start off the academic year with 32 children on roll, increasing to 38 after Christmas and 41 in total for the summer term. Like the previous year, we noticed quite a lot of enquiries for places very close to the start of each term and lots of last minute changes to children’s sessions, which made planning the staffing for each session very challenging. In the summer we had 26 children leaving Woodlands to go to school and an additional 5 children leaving for other reasons such as moving to another country, county or a different setting based at a siblings school or where they hoped to go to school.

2. Staff

We started off the academic year with a team of 10 permanent staff members and 2 temporary ones. We felt like a great team, we had 2 qualified teachers, 4 Level 3 staff members, 3 Level 2’s and 2 unqualified. Natalie had completed her first term as deputy and already felt like she had been part of the team for years and Fran was studying for her Level 4 and was sharing great ideas and information from her course. As the number of children was already quite high in the Autumn term, we were able to offer 1 of our temporary staff members Sarah, weekly shifts from September, rather than from January like we had the previous year. As the number of children increased each term, we were able to increase the number of hours staff were offered which is our usual practice.

Sadly, in June our lovely staff member Ali handed her notice in and she left at the end of term to go to plan & lead children’s sessions at her church. Although we were saddened at the news this is the perfect job for Ali and we are sure she will be brilliant at it. She has also offered to be on our relief staff list as her role in the church is part-time and her hours are flexible. This will be a great arrangement, should we need her, as we tried recruiting for relief staff for the summer term but with no success. People phoning to enquire about the job were not interested in applying once they found

out there were no regular shifts or guaranteed hours. With so many children leaving for school at the end of July, our numbers for September were predicted to be lower and fewer staff would be needed, so we were unable to offer our other temporary staff member Ankita regular hours, so she too will remain on our relief staff list for the Autumn 2023 term.

3. Activities

We managed to visit the Common twice in the Autumn term, collecting leaves in Animal group time taking kind parents and carers with us as helpers and walking up to look at the bonfire before it was lit. We also loved going on a hunt for bluebells and badger setts in the spring term. The staff and children were delighted by our Christmas party with entertainment from Hartbeeps. In the summer the children leaving to go to school had a disco and games provided by 2 local men who had provided the disco on the common a few weeks earlier. We also resumed our half termly Mindfulness and Yoga sessions with Jo from First Yoga, and dance/drama sessions with Gemma from Stageplus. The children really enjoy these extra-curricular sessions which are funded by donations from parents, however donations have reduced in recent years so we may have to rethink how we pay for them.

4.Administration

Woodlands is a pre-school for 2 ½ , 3 & 4 year old children. The running of it does not differ from a mainstream school - we have limited funding which has to be budgeted and spent wisely, we need to keep up to date with changes in education, attend training courses and meetings, keep policies and adhere to procedures that cover every aspect of school life. Until 2019, Woodlands was a committee run preschool, however the decision was made to become a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) with a board of trustees overseeing things as committees changed every year and it was felt the continuity of a board of trustees would be beneficial, which has definitely proved to be the case.

5.Parents

We are very lucky to have a lovely set of parents who are very supportive. They accompany us on our walks, attend meetings such as Parents Evenings and, of course, raise funds to help purchase new toys & equipment, repair our buildings and generally keep Woodlands ticking over! We are particularly grateful to our parents who give up their time to form the fundraising committee. We have had a small but extremely hard-working committee this year and want to say a very heartfelt thank you to all of them. Sam and Angela will tell you all about the activities they have organised and how much money they made.

6. The future

We start the 2023-24 Academic year with 10 staff members; we have 2 qualified teachers, 1 level 4 who is currently studying for her level 5 qualification, 3 Level 3 staff members, 3 Level 2’s and 2 unqualified relief staff. For the last few years parents have been able to claim up to 30 hours of free childcare per week if they both work and meet certain criteria. Last year we were able to increase our hours offered from 27.5 to 29 hours of childcare per week. Due to financial feasibility & staff childcare requirements we are not able to offer the full 30 hours funding as yet, this may change in the future. In April 2024 the government will bring in 15 hours funding for 2-year-olds of working parents so we will be opening up places to 2-year-olds from January 2024. As Woodlands is a preschool not a day nursery, we do not have provision for “naptime” so 2-year-olds will be offered morning sessions only for their first few terms.

The Early Years team at Buckinghamshire Council have invited us to an initiative called Side by Side, this is a group of staff from local preschools, nurseries and reception with the intent to share ideas, support, training and resources and improve the outcomes for particular groups of children. There is

a focus on maths skills this year anf through this I have signed up to the “Super Subitising Challenge” Subitising is the skill of being able to look at a small quantity of something and being able to recognise exactly how many there are without having to count them. The challenge aims to help us improve children’s subitising skills which vital as they form the foundations of early maths skills.

Administrators report

For the year to the end of August 2023 we made a profit of £13,790.83, £3,835.07 which came from fundraising. Our accounts are currently with our accountant to be audited. This is an increase on the previous year partly due to the fact that we had a very busy summer term.

This year we changed who we bank with as our previous bank, HSBC, started to charge monthly for a charity account as well as charging us to pay money into our accounts. We set up new accounts with Metro bank which seems to be going well. The whole process of changing over banks was a long drawn out process which involved moving money around different accounts which is why there are large amounts coming in and out of our expenditure in the ‘other’ categories.

Last year we introduced a registration fee of £20 to cover the administrative time taken with potential new starters that then don’t end up starting for a variety of reasons. This is then returned to the parents once the child has completed their first half term with us.

We are finding that we have more children requiring extra support so although we have had additional funding in the form of inclusion funding from Bucks County Council we have also seen increased staff costs to support this. Our staff costs have also increased due to increases in the minimum wage and the National Insurance increase.

Financial commitments continued in the form of rent, Sage for payroll administration, an accounts package, Ofsted fees, DBS checks for existing and new staff members, training for staff, playground equipment inspections, membership of the Early Years Alliance, website fees as well as general everyday consumables, equipment and maintenance costs.

Main differences in income/expenditure from last year:

Increase in funding due to increase in number of children and also SENIF
Better interest rates on Metro bank accounts
Our gift aid for last years events wasn’t claimed until September 23 so will fall into this years accounts.
Rent increased slightly due to increased hours for breakfast club every day and Friday afternoons
Our phone/internet fees are lower this year as we changed our supplier and had a lot of problems leaving us without a phone line or internet for a number of months so we were compensated for this
The committee amounts are related to the Christmas fair

Chair of Trustees Report

Good Evening. My name is Julia Rouse and I am the Chair of the Board of Trustees for the Woodland PreSchool. My involvement with Woodlands goes back a long way as my children came here and then I became the Early Years leader at Woodlands - a position I loved for the values Woodlands embodies and the reason I am still involved today!

Background to CIO

Woodlands officially registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 12th February 2019. Although it had operated as a registered charity for over 40 years, the change to CIO status gave the Woodland PreSchool its own legal identity and removed the liability on the individual committee members. The tenure of the elected governing body gives the pre-school stability and continuity.

The role of the trustees

So, what do we do? Well, the trustees have the role of being "Guardians of Purpose” which means that we put the needs and best interests of Woodlands at the heart of our decisions. We have a duty to safeguard the charity's assets which include those that are physical, financial, and intangible such as its reputation.

We meet half termly to discuss how the pre-school is working, whether the income covers our expenses, what action needs to be taken with regard to the management of the setting etc. During the pandemic meetings were held by Zoom and decisions regularly made as the rules and government guidelines changed. Whilst that period is over, new challenges present themselves which have to be addressed and we do our best to carry out our duties conscientiously.

The Governing Body

The other trustees are:

Angela Goodman - Angela's daughter Izzy was at Woodlands from 2018-19 during which time Angela was the treasurer on the Committee. Angela's second daughter, Anna, was at Woodlands last year and has just started full time school. Angela is a very experienced teacher in secondary education who is currently doing a PhD in education. Angela is Vice-Chair of our committee.

Daniela Dima- Riain - Daniela has 2 children, the youngest Alexei was at Woodlands in 2018/19. Dani's interests centre on alternative therapies. She is a regular visitor to Woodlands when she talks to the children about how nutritious colourful fruits and vegetables are for us! Having served first as a committee member and then as a trustee, Dani is stepping down this year. We are so grateful for her support and commitment to the board of trustees and wish her well in her many other positions of responsibility!

Karen Pearson - Karen is the administrator at Woodlands. Karen's daughter Ellie & son Josh have both been pupils at Woodlands. They attend the Disraeli school.

Katy White - Katy has been the Early Years Lead Practitioner since April 2019. She was a primary school teacher for many years and brought her wealth of knowledge to the position. Katy has 2 daughters who came to Woodlands several years ago.

I should like to thank all my fellow trustees for their time and involvement in the discussions and sometimes challenging situations we have had to deal with this year. We are a small team and have collectively supported the staff at Woodlands who work fantastically hard to keep Woodlands going in the aftermath of the pandemic.

We are glad that life has returned to normal and hope that this situation that will continue in the coming

years. Our role as trustees has been to support the staff with decision making and we hope that we have been diligent in this regard.

Trustee positions

If anyone is interested in becoming a trustee and would like to know more about the role, please speak to one of the trustees after the meeting or contact us via the Woodlands email address. You may have a talent that will help us to ensure Woodlands continues to operate on a sound footing! We are really pleased to welcome Sam as a trustee and wish her well as she joins the board.

Ofsted

Woodlands was inspected in March 2022 and received a Good judgement in all areas. Woodlands was well prepared for the inspection and the Inspector was pleased with our setting, the children's behaviour, willingness to learn and their confidence. It takes a minor miracle to achieve an outstanding grade and we were all very happy to receive a Good judgement in all areas.

The Fund-raising Committee

The academic year 2022/2023 saw a full year of fund-raising events. Our thanks go to the elite team of Angela, Natalie, Sam, Cat, Grace, and Nadine who organised the Christmas Fayre, the clothing collection, the fantastic quiz night, Downley Day and the sponsored bounce. Karen helped too and oversaw the extra fundraising initiatives such as Wycombe Lotto and Your School lottery. We need to continue to raise funds to support the pre-school particularly when equipment needs replacing or new resources are requested by the staff. As trustees, we appreciate the work that the fund-raising committee does but would also point out that it can be great fun and an excellent way to get to know other families!

The Staff

Thankfully the worst effects of Covid are behind us and life has returned to normal. Our staff greet each day and child with enthusiasm, ready to help every individual enjoy their time with us. The children's happiness and development is at the fore front of their learning as they tackle new activities "with love & laughter".

The trustees are proud of Katy, Karen, Natalie and the team who work so brilliantly together and who adapt to evolving scenarios with fortitude, commitment and resilience. We know the extra hours that they spend planning the curriculum, devising stimulating and fun activities for the children and training to keep their skills up to date and relevant. A big part of Woodlands is the community ethos and our staff are constantly in touch with families to ensure that Woodlands is warm, welcoming and inclusive.

Knowing how caring, enthusiastic, resourceful and dedicated the staff at Woodlands are, we are hopeful that the children will remember their time here with happy memories and a lifelong love of learning!

We are pleased to report that Woodlands is in a sound financial position. Last year the number of children attending was high. Visits outside recommenced with parents once again able to accompany the children and it is heartening to know that life has returned to pre-pandemic normality. None of these things would have been possible without the tireless work carried out by Katy, Karen, Natalie, Bea, Farzana, Lisa, Fran, Shayle, Alison, Gemma, Sarah & Ankita and our thanks go to all the staff for their dedication to Woodlands.

On behalf of the trustees, parents and children - the biggest thanks must go to Katy & Karen for their dedication, energy and amazing patience. It is because of their unstinting love for the children and their well-being that Woodlands continues to thrive. As trustees we are privileged to work with such amazing people and we are rightly proud to be part of the Woodlands community.

Fundraising report 2022-2023

Good evening. I am Angela and this is Sam and we were both on the fundraising committee for Woodlands last year. As you can see from the figures being circulated, we had a very successful year in terms of fundraising last year and raised a grand total of £3,835.07 for Woodlands across all fundraising events and initiatives. We were able to return to running events which had not been possible since before the pandemic and this was really positive – both in terms of the money raised for the Pre-school and in terms of being able to hold some lovely events for the Woodlands community.

We were able to host the Christmas fayre again, here at the Guide and Scout centre, in December and benefitted from the generosity of local businesses, parents and staff in being able to run a successful raffle and tombola as well as having lots of delicious cakes and sweet treats to sell. The donations were in fact so generous that we were able to hold a second tombola at our Nativity play, where we also put on refreshments for the parents. Across the two events we raised a total of £819.70 which is fantastic. It is worth noting, however, that we did struggle to sign up parent volunteers for the day and this may require consideration in terms of the scope of the Christmas fayre in years to come. We are very grateful to those who did volunteer as we can only run events such as this with the help of our parents.

We were also able to run the annual quiz night in April this year, which took place at St James’ Church Hall, for the first time since 2019. This event was a resounding success and we managed to raise £903.59 from the evening. Tom, our quiz master, was brilliant and we are very grateful to him for offering to both act as quizmaster and write the quiz so that committee members could join in on the night. Committee members also hosted games across the evening and ran a very lucrative bar. Attendance at the quiz evening was superb and the introduction of an Earlybird deal along with some good advertising seemed to draw a lot of locals into the event. The event was, in fact, so popular with the local community that we had to turn down some business due to the capacity of the hall. It may thus be worth considering a larger venue for the event if it is able to go ahead again this academic year.

In the summer term we hosted a stall at Downley day for which we ran both a jam jar and a chocolate tombola. We also sold off some clothes and toys which were left over from the Christmas fayre. Again, we benefitted from donations of filled jars and edible treats and were able to raise £450 for Woodlands from this event. We also helped to run the annual Sponsored Bounce in July which is always so much fun for the children. We are very grateful to Bounce Krazee who supplied the bouncy castle free of charge for the event. Children and their families worked hard in collecting sponsorship money and together raised a grand total of £858.35. A special mention must go to Bella who managed to raise £269 from her bouncing efforts!

In addition to these events, we also arranged a cash for clothes sale in March which raised £45.50 and staff at the Pre-school arranged a Facebook fundraiser for our nature garden which raised £161.26. On top of all of this we also benefitted from income from Wycombe Lotto, Your School Lottery, Easy fundraising and Amazon. Please do consider signing up to these things as they can generate a significant amount of money for us. Karen can supply you with the details if you are interested. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Karen, who oversees all of the donations which come into the fundraising account, who does so much of the admin for our events and who goes over and above to give practical support at many of them as well. Karen, you are a star!

All of the children of the committee members from last year have now left Woodlands and thus we are looking to set up a totally fresh, new, fundraising committee for this academic year. We really hope to find a fantastic group of parents and carers to take over from us with enthusiasm, to run

some of the wonderful events discussed in this report and to bringing their own ideas to the table. As a charity, Woodlands relies on the help and support of parents and carers to fundraise in order to provide valuable resources and experiences for our children. Therefore, if you are interested in joining the fundraising committee, please do speak to us at the end of the AGM.

Committee Resignation and Reappointment

After serving on the board of trustees for 2 years each trustee must step down and then decide if they would like to stand to be nominated again to form part of the board. This year Daniela DimaRiain resigned as a trustee for The Woodland Preschool and will not be standing for the position again. We thank Daniela for her many years of hard work as a trustee of Woodlands. We also welcome Sam Edwards-Price as a new trustee to Woodlands and very much look forward to her being part of the board. Each trustee that wished to be reappointed plus our new trustee needed to be nominated and seconded by a fellow trustee. Below are the list of appointed trustees along with their nominations.

Julia Rouse – nominated by Angela Goodman, seconded by Daniela Dima-Riain Angela Goodman – nominated by Julia Rouse, seconded by Katy White Katy White - nominated by Karen Pearson, seconded by Daniela Dima-Riain Karen Pearson – nominated by Julia Rouse, seconded by Angela Goodman Sam Edwards-Price – nominated by Angela Goodman, seconded by Katy White
