Who We Are

The Pre-School provides a stimulating, active and responsive atmosphere, with a supportive and encouraging adult/child ratio of 1-4 for 2-3 year old’s and 1-8 for over 3’s. The Out of School Club provides wraparound care for children aged 3-11 years old.

Our Ethos
At Pre-School, children learn through play. By play we mean their self-generated, self-directed activity. This may involve the child in huge physical or intellectual struggle and long periods of concentration, but it is still play if engaged in spontaneously from choice. It is the adult’s job to facilitate, encourage, support and guide this play.
