Give your child a head start before school

Our Early Years Rooms are for a maximum of 18 children of 3 and 4 years of age with a staff-to-child ratio of 1:8.
We have a large well resourced main room which is organised to enable children to access a wide variety of activities and experiences independently, where they can learn through investigation and exploration under the guidance of the Early Years Foundation Stage.  There is also a smaller room adjoining this where creative activities take place and there own bathroom area, all of which the children are able to access themselves.
 You're more than welcome to arrange a visit if you're looking for a place for your child; just give us a call and we'll arrange a convenient time for you to come in.

Getting the best from your child:

Within our teaching and learning we encourage:

Playing and exploring: children investigate and experience things and have a go
  • Active learning: children concentrate and keep on trying if they encounter difficulties and enjoy achievements
  • Creating and thinking critically: children have and develop their own ideas, make links between ideas and develop strategies for doing things
