Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

Due to COVID it has been a very unusual year, we were closed for a good part of the year. We did open up when allowed for key worker children.

Due to the situation, we had to do on-line school reports for the parents.

When restrictions were lifted and we could return to welcoming all children, Magical music came in twice a month to engage the children through music.

A new outside pirate ship, along with a number of other outdoor play equipment were installed, which the children enjoyed playing with.

A new compost bin was put in place for the outside vegetable garden.

A number of parents volunteered their time to help decorate the nursery during our refurb.

Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. responsibilities of The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year trustees and examiner under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given examiner’s statement by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
examiner's statement (other than that disclosed below *) 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

have not been met; orto which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
