## The purpose of Llandudno Junction Playgroup
Our purpose is to give all children the best start in life by providing a service which will promote child development. We provide high quality, affordable childcare for parents that enhances the development, care and education of all preschool children in a safe and stimulating environment, where children can learn through play.
## Our Values
The Charities core values guild our work.
The children are always put first to enhance the quality of our childcare. We welcome all children from our local community as every child has the right and opportunity to learn and develop through play.
- Our group works closely with outside agencies to deliver services and works in
- partnership where appropriate. Group has worked closely with CDC (child development centre) and portage this year to be able to gain help and support for a child with ALN that attends our group.
Our group promotes and delivers access to flexible and high, quality childcare
Provision run by fully qualified staff. Staff are given opportunities to access training to further develop their skills and to ensure the quality of teaching is maintained and enhanced.
We also as a childcare setting have a core belief that all parents are the first and foremost educators of their children. We encourage parent committees so to empower parents and give them a greater involvement in the childcare provided.
## Achievement’s
The setting is now set out to develop the children’s learning through the new guidelines from the Welsh government curriculum for the pathways.
All staff attend courses via zoom and face to face.
We have a good relationship with the staff from the cylch methrin group which is also on the school site. Our groups share an office and kitchen area.
We also have a good relationship with the school nursery and reception class staff, they keep group informed of any events that may be happening.
Groups Policies, procedures and risk assessments are kept up to date and changes made when necessary. All staff have to read groups policies and procedures, at the beginning of each school year staff have to read, sign and date to refresh their knowledge.
Since joining Flying start we have had more interest for our playgroup sessions, because of this we will be opening extra sessions in the afternoons, this will enable more children in September from the local area a place in group and parents will not have the worry of paying fees as they will be funded by flying start.
## Risks and uncertainties
As a charity that looks after children the trustees recognise that the main risk would be injury or death to any of the children whilst in the care of the group. Risk assessments are in place to manage any risks. Staff are first
aid trained, full risk assessments are in place and kept up to date and insurance policies are in place and kept up to date.
We still feel as a group we are not promoted fairly by the school, even with advertising a lot of people still don’t know we are there and the Welsh group does get more promoting from school.
## Plans for the future
To promote group in a successful way for us to grow and develop in the school setting. To be able to offer all parents the childcare they want for their children and opening afternoon sessions Gain the support from school to promote our group.
Fundraising to be able to buy new equipment to suit all ages, so we can provide new learning experiences to the children.
To gain new committee members.
To keep developing the setting for the new Welsh government curriculum, five developmental pathways. We will continue to introduce more natural resources in all areas and keep using recycled materials.
## Policies and procedures
We have full cover on policies, procedures and risk assessments that are in line with the requirements of Care Inspectorate Wales. Regular policy, procedure and risk assessment reviews take place to ensure that Llandudno Junction Playgroup meets its goals and requirements.
