We are pleased to have been open throughout this pandemic for children of parents who are Keyworkers and more widely from 1 June. From September 2020 we will welcome all new children albeit with changes to our usual routine. The well-being and safety of all children, their families and our staff team are paramount and we thank everyone for their understanding during these difficult times.

Welcome and thank you for your interest in our Kindergarten ....
Children join us each September for their pre-school year which is the year (September to August) in which their fourth birthday falls.
Our staff team are passionate about Early Years and committed to offering every child the opportunity to have fun, achieve and learn through play in a safe, caring and stimulating environment which promotes British values of:
Democracy ~ The rule of law ~ Individual liberty and
Mutual respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs and for those without faith
We recognise that every child is unique and aim to meet their individual needs in partnership with parents and carers.
Our curriculum encompasses the Early Years Foundation Stage, it provides activities and opportunities for children to learn through play and their own interests.
