Pre-School
Play. Learn. Grow
What we do
We use a key person system, which ensures that each child has one member of staff who takes a special interest in them. Observations will be carried out at various times during your child’s time at Pre-School to record their development and this is shared with parents via an online journal called Tapestry.
We provide a curriculum based on the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (2023) published by the Department for Education. This divides children’s learning and development into seven areas which are all important and inter-connected.
Opening Times
We open Monday to Friday 9am to 3pm, running 2 different sessions that meet parent’s needs.
