						made for them to visit the nursery for a mini inspection,
						to help support the teachers and help with the process
						ofrecruiting a new head teacher.
						During the year, one ofthe trustees visited the nursery
						in Jan Jan Bureh. Prior to her visit, work began on
						preparations, including book, uniform and clothing
						collections here in the UK, ready to ship across to The
						Gambia. Lots ofbook donations were received,
						induding sets of Oxford Reading Tree books. Some
						books will be used for home reading schemes and
						others will be used in the Reading Room in the nursery.
						Clothing and uniform donations were gratefully received
						and one ofthe trustees and her husband worked
						tirelessly to sort and box the clothes ready for the
						shipping container. Any clothes that were not suitable
						for the pupils in the nursery were donated to a partner
						charity and these dothes were sent to other areas in
						The Gambia.
						Pencil cases were made by one of the trustees for
						every child in the top two dasses in the nursery and we
						agreed to fund the contents. These were put on the
						shipping container together with filled homework bags,
						ready for distribution during the trustee's trip.
						The nursery visit took place in March 2022. Teacher
						training workshops for Jolly Phonics and home reading
						were held. There were meetings with one ofthe Early
						Years Advisors from Banjul, the new head ofthe
						Methodist Lower Basic School, the local Reverend, the
						nursery parents and staff. The clothes from the
						shipping container were organised and distributed to
						our partner charity for the local community. Staff
						uniform and hot drink making facilities were provided for
						the staff in the nursery. A manufacturer was sourced
						for a big-book stand for the Reading Room. Individual
						re-usable drinking bottles for every pupil were
						purchased and distributed with a cloth bag in which to
						carry it. Every child was given new underwear and a
						new t-shirt.
						During one ofthe parent meetings where 98 parents
						attended, the parents were introduced to the homework
						bags and contents and were pleased with everything
						rovided.
