A welcoming environment for children and parents alike

Stanway Pre-School provides children aged 2 - 5 with second to none care and support.

We give your child a gentle introduction to school by encouraging them to learn through play. Not only does this make their first day of school much less intimidating for them, it also helps them develop vital social and educational skills.

Our main aim is to make each child feel special and secure and to ensure that they have plenty of fun along the way. All our staff are qualifed or are working towards a childcare qualification, and together have a wealth of experience in looking after children.

We have run many events in the past and will continue to do so, as it is enjoyable for children and parents alike. These include a few fundraising events, which, as well as being enjoyable, raise awareness among the children, which is a vital part of their development.

Our pre-school's mission and philosophy:

• We value each child as an individual and focus on the whole child by providing high quality care and education.
• We view parents as our partners in the education of their children and develop positive partnerships.
• We use the surrounding community as a resource for learning, integrating it into our setting. This includes building relationships with primary schools to ensure smooth transions.
• We offer children and their parents a service which promotes equality and diversity. Our professionally trained and qualified practitioners guide the children in their learning and provide opportunities for them to succeed.

In order to secure your child's place at Stanway Pre-School, please ask us for a confirmation form. You will need to return this to us along with £10 registration fee, which includes a pre-school legionaries hat and t-shirt as well as a welcome pack.

Shortly after this we will contact you and arrange for your child and yourself to come in for a taster session. This is an opportunity for you to meet your child's keyworker, and will help you to realise that your child will be coming to a happy, safe and secure environment.
