Wenhaston Acorns Pre-School

Preschool

We are a thriving village pre-school, with connections to all local schools. Our staff are trained and experienced, covering  all children’s needs. The children at pre school form close relationships with the staff and other children in the setting.  We take walks around the village and involve our children in lots of activities such as cooking, messy play, building, mark making, social interaction, puzzles, bikes, outside exploration, festivals and religions. Child initiated play, we set a back ground topic and introduce it to the children and follow their lead. Through questionnaires our parents have said that they and their children feel valued and respected by the staff and that their children are happy and thriving.
