Our Aims

Our aim is to provide a quality Pre-School for children regardless of race, religion, culture, gender or ability. By providing a safe, stimulating, caring and fun environment, we hope to help them realise their full potential.  We seek to encourage their individuality whilst trying to re-enforce a community spirit.

We welcome the involvement of parents in the Pre-School in the following ways:

            Little Ducklings is run by a parent committee and would welcome new members.
           If you think you might be interested in helping in this way, please speak to Paula Ryman.

            You can come in and help during the sessions, please speak to Paula Ryman if you are

             interested.

We believe that it is important that your child enjoys learning and that developing skills should

be fun.  Throughout your child’s time with us we will provide a wide variety of practical play

experiences, including:

                Sand and Water play   •   Craft activities   •   Puzzles and games   •  

                    Singing and rhyming   •   Cooking   •   Imaginative play   •   Physical skills   •  

                    Music and Movement   •   Stories   •   Information Technology   •   Fostering a love of books   •   Mathematical activities

                  Speaking and Listening opportunities   •   Exploring the Environment

 

All our activities are planned with reference to the Early Years Foundation Stage, published by Department for Education and Skills (DfES).
