About Us
The Pre-School curriculum is centred on play. Play involves being imaginative, original, innovative and creative
Our values
Play also involves the participants in ideas, feelings and relationships and allows the child to use first hand experiences. Children are naturally motivated to play, and through their play attempt to solve problems arising from the physical and social world, which is important to them.
​
All children receive 15 hours or 30 hours if eligible 'free'' Nursery Education Funding from the term after their third birthday. 2 year old funding is also accepted. For non-funded children fees are £16.50 for am and pm sessions. Lunch Club is charged at £5.50 and Breakfast Club £6.00. Fees are payable in advance either half termly or weekly by arrangement with Management
