Treating each other with kindness, fairness and respect

Additional Information

 

We provide a pleasant and warm environment for your young child to develop their own routine of playing, learning, eating and toilet training whilst supported through the EYFS by our experienced staff. Play is important any they will get messy with sand, water and paint as they produce their first masterpieces! Social interaction is strongly encouraged so that your child becomes aware of their peers and learns to make new friends. Stimulating, exciting and challenging activities will give your child that head start ready for school but there will still be the all-important fun, play, love and cuddles for your child!


We currently have limited places available for 2, 3 and 4 year olds.
