Cylch Meithrin Ysgol Glan Morfa Annual Report 2023/24
Good afternoon, everyone. I am proud to be able to report back on Cylch Meithrin Ysgol Glan Morfa’s fifth year of operation.
During 2024 we have we maintained consistent numbers of children which has allowed the Cylch to thrive and to continue to feed our host school, Ysgol Glan Morfa, with new children.
The Committee would like to extend our sincere thanks to our Leader and Staff for their hard work this year. I have personally attended the Cylch on several occasions this year during which I have witnessed how they all our staff invest great care, compassion and dedication to the children and the organization. The consistency of our placement numbers is a testament to the quality of provision within the Cylch. Our organization’s reputation within the community of Splott and beyond is clear reflection of the work that our staff put in day-in day-out.
Within 2024 we have been fortunate to have recruited two apprentices, Eve Simms and Courteny Colman, who are diligently working towards their qualifications. We wish them a hearty formal welcome and thank them for their hard work throughout this year. We also are looking forward to welcoming Kiran Kaur back from maternity in the New Year which will bring our staff numbers to a very healthy number of five!
As ever we would like to thank our Leader Bethan Trott and Deputy Leader Lleucu Cravos for their dedication to Cylch Meithrin Ysgol Glan Morfa. We are as proud of them as we know they are of the Cylch.
In September 2024 we had our annual health check from Mudiad Meithrin to help us prepare for a CIW inspection. The hard work of our leader and staff was highlighted as well as the work the team have undertaken to ensure the compliance elements of the Cylch have been completed.
Our relationship with our hosts, Ysgol Glan Morfa, is essential to our operation and we thank Mr Tomos and all his staff for their support and co-operation throughout 2024. We look forward to discussions in 2025 about how we can support each other further for the benefit of the community.
We thank and appreciate the support of our funders. The Welsh Government for the 30 Hour Childcare offer and are pleased with the announcement of the increase to the hourly rate. This increase will allow us to maintain our status as
a living wage employer and will allow the committee to plan ahead for the future of the Cylch.
We would like to thank Mudia Meithrin for their support and in particular our case officer Abby Williams for her support this year.
The Cylch has once again managed to operate this year whilst maintaining a healthy reserve in line with best practice financial management in the charity sector. Looking ahead we hope that the development of our apprentices and the return of staff will reduce our need to call on agency support which will help achieve our aims of providing an excellent care setting whilst paying our staff a fair wage for their valued work.
Cylch Meithrin Ysgol Glan Morfa has come a long way since a small group of parents took on the project to start a Welsh language nursery provision in Splott. As we move forward it is essential that new parents consider taking roles within the committee so that the Cylch has the at least minimum legal requirements for good governance. The committee will be taking steps in early 2025 to increase engagement with parents to improve our resilience and accountability.
Once again thank you to all our stakeholders. Have a very good Christmas and New Year.
Rory McBride
Chair, Cylch Meithrin Ysgol Glan Morfa, December 2024
