With our highly experienced team, we remain committed to providing inclusive opportunities throughout the preschool years, supporting every child to reach their full potential. All staff members complete compulsory training alongside additional courses that not only enhance their skills but also benefit the preschool as a whole. This year began quietly, with 22 children enrolled initially and an additional 6 joining through the year. In April 2024, we implemented the Working Families 2-Year Funding, offering 15 hours of government-funded childcare. Although interest in places for 2-year-olds increased for September 2025, our ability to expand sessions was limited due to staffing constraints and required ratio adjustments, leading some families to seek alternative arrangements. Our tradition of day trips continued this year. In December, we returned to Roves Farm for their festive Christmas Experience, and our summer outing took us back to the Cotswold Wildlife Park. We remain dedicated to providing enriching experiences especially for children who are less fortunate. For the first time in many years, we successfully held a Summer Fete. The organising committee worked tirelessly to deliver a fantastic community event, which was met with great enthusiasm and participation. We actively promote Broadhill Pre-School through social media channels and benefit greatly from positive word-of-mouth referrals from former parents and carers. All families receive comprehensive welcome packs along with informative documents detailing the services and support available at Broadhill Pre-School. We look forward to continuing our commitment to providing a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child can thrive. ## **Policy on Reserves:-** In accordance with guidelines from the PSLA, Reserves of £45,000 are held in a savings account. This would cover redundancy payments in the event of unexpected staffing cuts. ## **Declaration** The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees report.
