We are a 28 place Pre-School and we run out of a purpose built room within a children's centre. We have our own enclosed garden for the children to use on a daily basis. We give your child a gentle introduction to school by encouragement to learn through play. With strong links to local schools our transition process ensures that our children are ready for their first step into primary school. Not only does this make their first day of school much less intimidating for them but it also helps them develop vital social and educational skills. Our main aim is to make each child feel special and secure and to ensure that they have plenty of fun along the way. All of our staff are qualified, and together have a wealth of experience in looking after children.
