Little Willows Pre-School
PreSchool

We operate from a self-contained building within the primary school grounds. We have an enclosed all weather outdoor play area with fantastic equipment. The close proximity of the school means that we have strong links with primary school and we enjoy regular shared playtime with the foundation stage children. We pride ourselves on our small, friendly village setting.
