About Us
Rainbow House is an independent not-for-profit provider of a range of services for children aged O-10
years and their families. It was initiated by local women in 2001 as a mothers & toddlers group, and it
grew steadily to meet the Erowing demands of the community and since then has become an Ofsted
reElStered child care setting in 2005. In 2015 we opened another site nearby. Our services include
part-time and full-time p￿-SChool sessions, after school club, weekend language clubs, Mothers &
Toddlers session, seminars, workshops, crèche, outings, and fun days. With all our services running at
full capacity over 200 children and their families benefit from our services on a weekly basis. We are
located in purpose-built settings in East London and are managed by a Management Committee.
Our Vision
Being located in a deprived area our goal is to strive for excellence in all that we do by embedding
reflective practice and making measured improvements to provide the best outcomes for children.
Research has shown the great impact a high-quality provision can have on the lives of children from
disadvantaged backgrounds.
Our Mission
Rainbow House aims to extend and nurture children through their early learning experience, by using
the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum as guidance to build upon foundations laid within the
home. We support parents, the child's first educators, to help each child be healthy, safe, enjoy and
achieve their full potential within a safe and caring environment. Rainbow House is culturally sensitive
and reflects the diverse community it serves.

Directors'/Trustees' Report
for the year encled 31 August 2024
Aims and Ob ectives
In fulfilling our mission, we will strive to achieve the following objectives..
To offer high quality childcare for children aged O-10 years, that is affordable for people from
disadvantaged backgrounds.
To enable parents and families to access early years children's services, education and skills
to achieve their full potential 3Trd participate fully in society.
To develop skills and knowledge of staff by supporting training and education
Key Achievements and Public benefits
We strive to provide high quality education whilst still being affordable. This year we extended our
services to make it more accessible for working parent5. We aim to make a difference to the lives of
all children at our setting and extending its impact to staff, parents, the wider community, and society
at large. For example, in collaboration with UCL and Race Equality Foundation, we completed our 13
weeks Strengthening Families Strengthening Communities Parenting course with 12 participants
successfully completing the course and receiving their certificates.
As in previous years children continue to come into nursery with low language and independence
skills,. they were behind in their learning and development and a number of children were supported
with their behaviour and identified additional needs. We have therefore ensured all staff focus on
interventions to help support children in closing the gap. Early Talk Boost has been highly successful
and the most beneficial use of our Pupil Premium funding. The programme aims to accelerate
children's progress in language and communication by an average of 5 months after 9 weeks. Children
also took part in other interventions such as Forest School, Attention Bucket and Think Equal.
We continue to provide high quality Early Years education and care, whilst also managing the impact
of the pandemic on our business, children, and families. We took part in the BICYCLE project with City
University to understand the impact of COVID on children. In partnership with LaunchGood we
successfully fundraised for the nursery as well as global issues close to the hearts of our service users.
We collaborated with the local mosque to distribute food and hygiene parce15 to families. We had
around 90 children ir> our preschools and a further 90 children access our Afterschool and Weekend
clubs. Our small cohort of 6 Reception aged children all achieved their Early Learning Goals and some
left Rainbow House as fluent readers and writers and exceeclinE skills and knowledge for their age.
In addressing the issue of not having an outdoor space at our LMC site- staff have created an indoor
Mud Kitchen- which has been a key highlight of this year-with visitors from local settings and schools
coming to see our provision. We endeavoured to enrich children's experiences - particularly those
receiving pupil premium funding, by providing a number of outings and trips in addition to our usual
ocal trips such as to the Cable cars, Museums, restaurants, places of worship 2nd end of year trips to
Soft Play at Kids Mania and London Zoo. We ended the year with Graduation ceremonies at both our
sites to celebrate children's progress and achievement5 and 'Special honouring of parents, in their role
as first educators of their children. We would also like to extend our gratitude to all staff who have
worked tirelessly to help children reach their full potential and together with parents give them the
best start in life.

Directors'lTrustees' Report
for the year ended 31 August 2024
Reserves Policy and Going Concern
The Trustees believe that it is essential that the Trust maintains sufficient reserves to allow it to
continue its work through difficult economic times, to allow flexibility for cash flow requirements in
respect of committed programmes, as well as providing resources in the event of any significant and
unexpected expenditure. The Trustees have set a target of six months, expenditure as a prudent level
of reserves. Currently the reserve is well above the policy level and yet the reserve policy is regularly
under review.
The Trustees are fully satisfied with the Going Concern basis of accounts preparation as they have
seen further funds received after the financial year-end, which will continue to support planned
projects, and help the organis3tion return to a surplus next year.
Financial position
The Statements of Financial Activities shows a surplus of £83,294 this year12023.' Deficit of £64,239)
with total funds of £468,153 12023= £384,859las at 31 August 2024. Despite of having increased
funds, the Trustees have assessed cautiously cash flow from 12 months of the signing date of Accounts
to be confident of GoinE Concern.
