Thank you so much to everyone for your kindness during these difficult times. We were sad for the sudden closure, but look forward to linking up with you all in the meantime. If you need any support whilst Pre-school is closed, please email us at: [email protected]

We appreciate that times are tough and unplanned. Always remember that you as parents, are your child’s first and most enduring educators. Our best advice during this time is for you to Play, as it develops a huge range of skills needed in early development! Enjoy the magic, awe and wonder of play!

Please see the ideas we have put together for you. We by no means expect you to do them all, but we’ve had lots of requests for some ideas. Hope it helps!

Take care and we hope to see you all very soon.

The Pre-school team.
