Our Setting
We have a purpose built setting located at the rear of Greatworth Primary School. The location of the building allows Pre-School to have its own good-sized secure outdoor play area including a dedicated forest school area.
Forest School
Outdoor learning allows children to play in a safe enviornment and develop key skills such as self confidence and independance. We are lucky enough to our own dedicated Forest School area and staff that are also trained as forest school leaders.
FAQs
Do you have any availability?
Our sessions vary throughout the year so please contact us to see if we have any space to meet your needs.

A child can start as soon as they have reached their 2nd birthday. Please complete the Registration Form and Consent Form as soon as possible to be placed on the waiting list.

How will I get feedback on how my child is doing?
Your child will have a key person who will provide you with verbal feedback as often as possible but we also use Tapestry, an online journal that you will get to see regular snapshots of what they are doing. We also hold regular Parent’s Evenings where you will be able to speak to your child’s key person, who will be able to give you feedback on the progress your child is making, discuss any concerns they, or you, might have and offer advice if necessary.
What dates is Pre-School open?
We operate the same term dates as Greatworth School. However, we generally open when they are closed for training days – please see notice board for details or the News tab on the website
