The charity is run by a volunteer committee drawn from the children's parents. The volunteer committee meets once each half-term. As well as officers (Chair, Treasurer and Secretary) the meetings are attended by the Preschool manager and other committee members. Meeting dates are publicised well in advance and any parent is welcome to attend.
An AGM is held annually where officers are elected or re-elected and the constitution adopted for the following year. Minutes of the AGM are displayed for all parents to consult, along with the constitution. Officers are encouraged to serve for two years in order to provide some continuity for staff and parents.
The charity is supported by the district County Council (South Cambridgeshire) which provides advice and training for trustees and staff. We are a member of the Preschool Learning Alliance.
Hauxton is a small community and our Preschool has a strong relationship with the village Primary School, where many of our children progress to reception class.
