display high levels of ¢ngagemeni.
Child number5 remwned consistent in 2021. despite a decrease in feevpaying chtldren. This was offset by an
in¢T¢ase in the nwnber of funded Children. reflecting the uptake of g0vernmen1-sup￿rted childcere pmyrams.
We aniicipale this trend will pergist inlo 2024r25. driven by the governm¢ni"s initiative to provide fr¢e ¢hildeare
for workin¥ familt¢s, specifically ihrough the exleL%ion of fiuxled h(M￿S for 2-y¢ar4olds.
There was a significant expenditure of £47K on the extensive refurbishment of the pona¢hbin. This c4)si has
b¢en ¢apitali5ed in the a¢(￿J￿ts. This means that rathcr than being recorded Is an immediaie expense on the
income stst¢m¢n( the cost is upitalised on th¢ balance shed as an asset. This allows th¢ Nuw5ery to spread the
cost over the U￿ful lif¢ of the 85set ihrcMJgh depreciolion. which can providc a bener reflection of ihe asseV5
value over time. The aim of this refurbishmeni to enhan¢¢ the building's funclionaliry. safety. and
lon8evity. enstsrin8 li remains fht for puw for the foreseeable fvture.
The refurbrshmeni included a complde overhaul of the exterior. where th¢ buildin8 was fvlly stripped and
upjaied wtih durable maierials to impfove both aellhdics and resilience. Special attention was given to
mjintaining the tnt¢griiy of the struciu￿. eAsurin8 thai it is w*enight and fully proiec*d from environmental
faC￿rS.
In addition. two n¢w fire d(KKs were insthlled. imwovin8 the safety of th¢ buildin8 in line with curreni fire
safety regulations. These upgrades ￿ve transfom)cd the p)naubin into a more sKyre aThJ suwinable
environmen¢ ready to serve its inicnd¢d purp)sc in Ihe long ￿Trn.
An￿h¢r si8nifi¢ani increw is 8 £5K rise in the wa8e bill. In April 2023 the rninimum wa8e in¢rewd by 9.7%,
with a further increase of I￿/tr in Atffil 2024.
