## **Objectives and Activities of the charity -** 

To provide Welsh medium early years education to pre-school children. 

The charity works with the local education authority to enable staff to provide relevant early years education  set out within the current curriculum and receives education funding to support this. 

The  charity  also  is  member  of  the  Mudiad  Meithrin  who  support  early  years  pre-school settings to promote the use of the Welsh language through the setting as well as support in compliance with CIW reguations. 

The setting is registered to provide the Childcare for Wales offer and receives funding in place of payment from parents for those that qualify enabling us to offer wrap around childcare in addition to the education 

The charity employs 7 staff – all staff are qualified to provide early years Welsh medium education  and childcare, all receive ongoing training to develop and build knowledge and skills. 

## **Structure, Governance and management/ Contributions from volunteers** 

Cylch Meithrin Y Tonnau currently has three volunteers/ trustees who support the day to day manager in the running of the setting, and oversee the financial affairs, governed by our CIO constitution. 

Nest Jones  -  Chairperson 

Christian Wadsworth – Treasurer 

All trustees are appointed/ voted in at our Annual AGM – current trustees have been in seat over a year re - elected at the last AGM. This has helped us steer our way out of the pandemic. 

New trustees elected will receive induction training, full support/ guidance and handover from outgoing trustees. 



Cylch Meithrin Y Tonnau has no Corporate or Custodian Trustees nor do any trustees hold title of any property belonging to the charity 

## **Achievements of the Charity** 

. The staff have been piloting the new curriculum for Wales since Sep 21 and finding ways to ensure  this  meets  the  needs  of  the  children  attending  Cylch.  This  has  enabled  us  to confidently  start  the  new  school  year  in  Sep  22  fully  understanding  and  providing opportunities within the new curriculum 

As we provide a service in an area with a high percentage of non-Welsh speaking children we have been able to introduce and start the children on their Welsh Language journey in preparation for starting main stream Welsh medium school. 

## **Performance of fundraising** 

With the restrictions of financial burden on many parents/ businesses it has been challenging to be able to carry out much fundraising. We have been able to raise some funds through Individual sponsored walks, we have received some financial donations from local raffles also. 

Total income from fundraising/ donations - £246 

## **Financial Review** 

Starting balance of 21,819.43 

At the end of this financial period we held a stable position with the sum of £27,639.58 in reserve, equating to the advised three months outgoings. 

Throughout the year we made a profit of £5820.15 

We received £83,504.07 through fees, education funding and childcare offer funding 

Total staffing costs for the period were – £72,996.99
