Chairpersons AGM report 2021
Once again this report must begin with the impact of COVID, which has challenged Love Lane Preschool again this year. It has dominated our thoughts and practices and our staff have handled the year with professionalism and calm, although they were feeling apprehensive about working through a pandemic, they disguised this well.
Our staff created a safe ‘bubble’ for the children to attend, have fun and play whilst allowing them as much normality as possible which was a result of well thought out policies and risk assessments, which were regularly updated and amended as things changed. This all created a lot of work for our staff especially in terms of the extra cleaning of toys and the hall. I would like to thank you all for your hard work and commitment this past year, during difficult times, but you have all contributed in making preschool into a warm and welcoming environment where our children develop and grow into young people as they get ready for school.
Once again It has been my personal privilege this year to work closely with some hardworking people who are enthusiastic about what they do and have the best interests of Love Lane preschool at heart.
In the spring term we welcomed Amy and Tammy to the team and Tammy is now doing an apprenticeship with us through Chiltern training. At the end of the summer term we said goodbye to our manager Sarah and i would like to thank her for all her hard word during unprecedented times. At the start of the
Autumn term we welcomed Stephanie to the team and i was very happy when she agreed to join us.
Fundraising has still been challenging, but we have been able to attend Thatcham Funday which was very successful. I would like to thank all our parents for their support again this year, we couldn’t do it without you.
Once again It has been my personal privilege to work with some hardworking people who are enthusiastic about what they do and
have the best interests of Love Lane preschool at heart and i would personally like to thank them.
The Committee is very conscious that parental involvement needs to be developed and is working to improve this, in terms of encouraging parental support during Pre-School sessions and helping with fundraising events, but this has been difficult owing to Covid restrictions. Unfortunately if new parents don’t join the committee there is a risk the preschool could close.
Some of our children have accessed the 30 hour funding and in conjunction with Shaw cum Donnington School we have been able to accommodate them, the children attend preschool in the morning and are taken over to the school at 11.30 where they spend the afternoon.
I look back over the last year with an overall sense of satisfaction and pride for what we have achieved as a team working together.
