AGM Minutes June 1st 2026
-
Apologies, Amber Kuszewski
-
Present Lynne Barnes, Karly Low, Julie Reid, Jade Goodwin, Emily Reid
-
Previous minutes have been approved
-
Outstanding matters. Raise fees for September. Emily to look at fees and report to trustees
-
Managers' report attached. Jade has too many roles, trustees to speak with the staff about the DSL role.
-
There is still a deficit between the government funding and the running costs of a nursery.
Managers continue to apply for grants and are aware of spending and keeping within budget. Any money that comes to the nursery for specific children is spent wisely. Jade as Sendco ensures all resources are approved and appropriate. Jade keeps a log of all spending.
We would like to take this opportunity to individually thank the staff for their continued dedication, care and hard work.
I (Julie Reid) would like to thank the trustees for all their continued support over the past year. There have been leadership changes, during this time, managers and staff have stepped up and worked with trustees to ensure the nursery continues to operate at a high standard.
7. Financial report attached.
- Trustees are aware of their roles and responsibilities. This is a voluntary role. Part of our role is to give support at events where possible.
Manager to inform trustees about any events please.
Trustees view all aspects of the nursery and work together with staff in the nursery’s best interests. Our vision is to ensure the stability and future of the nursery, and for the nursery to continue to give outstanding service to all families.

- No conflict of interest. Forms have been completed where required. Any conflicts are carefully monitored by trustees and any necessary actions are taken. The new guidance around conflict of interest from Charity Commision has been shared with all trustees. Julie advised trustees to sign up for emails from the Charity Commission.
10. Decision-making is made through discussion and votes.
11 Trustees continue to maintain confidentiality and our pledge to the nursery.
-
This year's accounts are ready to be filed with the Charity Commission. Trustees have viewed and agreed on these.
-
Emily our Administration Manager ensures our accounts are sent to our accountant. Our accountant sends all details of our accounts and AGM to file with Charity commission.
-
Discussed ways to recruit a new trustee. Lynne to draw up a poster to put to parents and the wider community.
-
The nursery needs to have a fundraising group to support us in organising fundraising events. This needs to be actioned once we sort a date for a fete.
