Other Achievements and performance From 01.09.24 to 31.08.25, we were unable to fundraise or send funds to JJB Nursery while awaiting its reopening and takeover. On 29.09.25, our Liaison Offi￿r, Caroline Butcher, confimied that JJB Nursery School had become a Communrty Nursery again and would be financed and managed by MOBSE {Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education}, with the regional education directorate supervising teaching and leaming. Leo, Head of Lower Basic School, will be the new Head of JJB Nursery, and Senior Teacher may be appointed. At our AGM on 22nd October 2024, the Charity Commission Officer resolved to begin dissolving Friends of JJB Nursery. as future fundraising was unlikely and Trustee roles were hard to fill. However, because we still held funds and JJB Nursery School needed emergency repairs. we agreed to fund essential building work during the next academic year until the money is spent.
