Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Sept 2020 – Our first month back fully operational since lockdown March 2020. We had 7 new starters. A total of 32 children on roll.
October 2020 – We held a sponsored scoot raising £751.00!!! Unfortunately having a larger group of children in on the special event day lead to 1 case of COVID and the pre-school had to close for a deep clean and isolation.
We did a lot of activities outside looking at Autumn signs (fallen leaves, acorns) and hedgehogs. We prepared a tray with sand and put some hedgehog food in the middle. Overnight the hedgehog visited and left its foot prints in the sand. The children also made clay hedgehogs.
Gardening club planted some crocus bulbs.
November 2020 – we had a real camp fire for the very first time. We spoke to the children about fire safety and that we have to make sure we keep our selves safe. The children had great knowledge about fire safety and they were all extremely sensible around the fire. We kept ourselves warm and as an extra special treat we even got to toast some marshmallows.
December 2020 – we had a socially distant visit from Father Christmas.
February 2021 - we love to do activities outside, encouraging the children to explore nature and develop their understanding of plants, animals and natural objects. The children always show such enthusiasm and love to be involved. After receiving our bronze award for the RSPB wild challenges in 2019, we have now got our silver award! Over the last few months we have done activities such as hedgehog homes, bug hunts, weather exploring, looking at different habitats and most recently our big birdwatch.
March 2021 – Gardening Club planted some fruit and vegetables (tomatoes, strawberries, carrots, cucumber, peas, potatoes and chard.
April 2021 – Incredible Eggs. A donation from The John Thornton Trust enabled us to purchase 7 duck eggs and the hatching kit and we were able to give our children a wonderful learning opportunity. Our children witnessed the ducklings hatch, feed & swim. Our children sang to them and held them. Such a phenomenal experience.
June 2021 – we were able to purchase 2 new sheds with a kind donation from an ex pre-school family. The sheds were purchased from The Fencing Centre.
July 2021 - Due to COVID-19 we were still unable to hold our

much loved annual summer fayre. This would be the 2[nd] year running we haven’t been able to host a summer fayre so to raise some much needed funds we held a summer raffle. Edwards estate Agents kindly donated £100 cash for our first prize. We had lots of fabulous prizes including the very popular alcohol wheelbarrow. We raised £1291.00. We also had a Camp Bestival Family ticket and the winning bid was £300. So in total our summer raffle raised £1591. With this money we were able to place an order for a 32inch interactive table.
Again due to COVID-19 we were unable to hold our leavers ceremony where all parents attended. So to make the last day for our leavers special we hired a bouncy castle and the parents provided some food.15 children left us.
