Treasurers Report (Joanna Slater)

an external audit, but the draft outcome for the year is expected to be a net surplus of approximately £22k (vs. net surplus prior year of £4k).

Some variance in the surplus, year on year, is expected. This is usually due to the timing in which funding is received from Surrey County Council ("SCC") and the varying age of the children in each year group. Notwithstanding this, a £22k surplus is unusually high, and seems to have been driven by 2 things:

  1. Receipts from SCC in 24/25 were very strong. SCC sets the funding amounts for childcare each year in March, and the summer term 2025 settlement showed a notable increase in funding for the nursery.

  2. Certain expenses that existed in previous years have not been needed in 24/25, such as the professional costs of incorporation

It's also worth noting that the increase to employers' national insurance has not impacted our nursery as greatly as it as other employers, as the increased employment allowance has meant the NICs bill is unchanged for a nursery our size.

In April 2025 the National minimum wage increased by 6.7% to £12.21 per hour. At the same time, the nursery increased wages (on average) by 5.5% to ensure we remained competitive within the sector and retained staU. The trustees felt it was appropriate and necessary at this time to review parent fees and as such increased our hourly rate by 5.9%, meaning paid hours are charged at £9 an hour from the new term.

Fundraising

Fundraising totalled £4,030 in 24/25, which is an amazing achievement. Well done to all involved with a special thanks to Verity and her crack team! Particular highlights:

With the balance relating to second hand uniform sales, Gingerbread men & women and Easy Fundraising.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to or took part in these events and particularly to Verity and team for organising them.

Whilst the Fundraising income may appear small compared to funding from SCC and parent fees, once our basic overheads (staU costs, rent, bills etc.) are netted oU, the nursery's budget for educational resources, and contingency is relatively small, at around 1% of income. This year, annual fundraising quadrupled this, funding various educational resources and the chickens to further enrich our children’s nursery experience.

the help and support oUered by Sophie Archer-Hurst, who brilliantly held the role until March 2025. I've inherited an excellent set of books and I'm very impressed with Sophie's legacy!

I have reviewed the accounts for St Michael’s Community Nursery for the financial year ending 31 August 2025. In my opinion the accounts give a true and fair view of the income and expenditure of the Nursery for the year end and the assets held at the balance sheet date.
