Great Barton Pathways Preschool
PreSchool
We are set in the centre of a small village in a rural setting with an amazing outdoor space. This is divided into a climbing area consisting of two climbing structures for various ages a roadway for bikes and ride on cars, a garden area, a mud kitchen and much more. The learning provided indoors is reflected outdoors. Children enjoy our outdoor space where they can see the tractors in the farmers field and observing the varied wildlife. The staff are all well qualified in Childcare and First Aid and have lots of knowledge and experience from working with children over many years. We are led by the children's interests and developments to structure our days at Pathways. We like to work closely with our parents developing a good relationship supporting them and their children while at our setting. We are Ofsted registered with consistently good as our outcome.
