Our large and bright purpose built room with a well-equipped garden provides a safe and stimulating environment in which to play and learn.  Children are able to move freely between indoor and outdoor learning and play on a daily basis.

Inside our impressive collections of resources encourages children to build relationships with other children and build confidence to work together in group situations.  Learning through play in a happy and relaxed environment with a mixture of teacher led  and independent activities ensures children grow into confident little people, ready for school.

Outside, the garden provides a rich learning environment which encourages imaginary play and builds fine motor skills with equipment such as the ever popular mud kitchen, playhouse, sand pit and water table.  Children have the opportunity to get involved with growing herbs, plants and vegetables in our plot.

Access to Preston Candover Primary School's field allows excellent space for running, parachute games and other activities.  Where possible we offer the children the opportunity to visit local farms and go on woodland walks to enhance their pre-school learning experience.

We are delighted to offer the option of attending our Forest School on a Monday or Thursday morning.  Our Forest school is run within the grounds of the Sainsburys estate and we go whatever the weather!  The children absolutely love exploring the natural environment and learning alongside friends to develop confidence in an outdoor setting.  These popular sessions do need to be booked in advance as an additional extra.

We are a registered charity run by an elected committee of parents.  We are an equal opportunities Pre-school and affiliated with the Pre-school Learning Alliance.  We are registered with Hampshire County Council Services for Young Children with Ofsted.  Our last four Ofsted inspections were graded Outstanding.  Scroll down to read our latest January 2020 report.
