Badingham Playschool is a well established nursery school with experienced, well qualified staff offering quality, affordable childcare to families in Badingham and surrounding villages and towns. We work closely with parents/carers to ensure children settle well and get the most from their pre-school experience. Our curriculum is very varied and is led by children's interests and needs. We also run 'Woodland Nursery' and 'Farm Nursery' days providing an educational approach to outdoor play in a woodland/farm environment. We have a base in Framlingham Town which we use on a regular basis to visit Framlingham Castle, the library, fire/police station, local shops and parks. We organise intergenerational activities with residents from the local care home. We have good links with a large number of local primary schools and strive to ensure a good transition for each child. Awarded Suffolk County Council Early Years Educational Setting of the Year 2019.
Coronavirus update: We recommend you check any activity or group you plan to attend is still running. Go to Community Action Suffolk to see how local groups can help isolated people. Our Coronavirus page can help with local information too
