OUR AIMS & OBJECTIVES
-
to encourage parents/carers to understand and provide for the needs of their children
-
to provide safe and satisfying group play
-
to encourage other charitable activities through which parents/carers may help the children
-
We strongly believe in giving every child the best possible start in life and as a result have
-
decided to become part of a national accredited Welsh Government scheme – the ‘Healthy and Sustainable Pre-School Scheme’.
• We aim to support children to recognise the importance of healthy living as we acknowledge that what happens in the early years of life has lifelong effects on many aspects of health and wellbeing.
-
We aim to ensure that all children have the opportunity to benefit from stimulating
-
challenges and the right to play freely, exploring and investigating both indoors and out.
-
We seek to ensure that children in our care remain healthy, safe and develop to their full
-
potential
-
We aim to convey messages on healthy choices and contribute to the promotion of healthy
-
and sustainable lifestyles.
• We aim to develop and communicate a positive ethos which promotes positive approach to the environment.
-
We recognise that safeguarding against radicalisation is no different from safeguarding
-
against any other vulnerability.
• All staff are expected to uphold and promote the fundamental principles of British values, including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.
Numbers, ages and sex of children for whom care is to be provided
-
we are registered for 16 children per session
-
we take children from the age of 2 until they enter school nursery in the September after
-
their third birthday.
-
we take both male and female children of all abilities.
The playgroup’s aim is to provide a quality childcare provision for children aged 2 years to 4 years in the village of Old Colwyn. We seek to provide a safe and nurturing environment that develops the children’s learning, through play and investigation.
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
We continue to see good numbers of children attending the setting, with most children making good progress in their development whilst attending. We continue to have a high need for support staff due to the number of children needing extra support attending the group. Some of our children are funded under education grants, 30 hr and Flying Start grant funding. We continue to deliver through In the Moment planning and are working towards introducing the New Curriculum for Wales over the next 18 months.
We are now re registered with CIW as a full day care setting although our aim is only to provide full day care for emergencies primarily this leaving us able to serve the community with more spaces fro sessional care.
We are now a registered CIO with Charity Commission.
Environmental Changes
We have had new steps to the building on both the back and front and much needed replacement front due to deterioration has been completed. Lots of additional resources have been added to the outdoor area.
FUTURE PLANS
We are hoping to continue to gain grants to further improve the setting as it is continually in need of upkeep – long term would be beneficial to have a brick building as opposed to a portacabin. Additional resources to enhance the outdoor area such as new play house, full planting area for the children to grow seed to table products
FINANCIAL STATEMENT
The financial statement shows an income of £129323.23 with most of the income coming from government funding streams. Our expenditure for the year is £86867.43 with the vast majority going on our best resource that of staffing costs and building repairs.
