Thurston Preschool provides activities for children aged 2 years plus in a safe, happy, caring and stimulating setting. We offer a diverse range of equipment and activity to suit all needs, including indoor and outdoor play. We encourage our children to learn through play, whilst supporting development socially, emotionally, intellectually and physically. We believe our role is to support parents and children and work together to ensure all children have a fun and enjoyable time.
