What we can offer you and your child

Welcome to Findon Village Preschool! We aim to provide high quality care and education, work in partnership with parents to help the children learn and develop, and offer a service that promotes equality and values diversity.

Early Years Foundation

Activities are based on the ‘Early Years Foundation Stage Framework’ designed to focus on each child’s individual learning. The preschool staff will observe the childrens interests and provide activities and learning experiences around them through play, according to their own stage of development. READ MORE

Special Needs

Here at the preschool we accept all children and will discuss with parents and carers what we can offer your child and to see if our setting will be suitable. We also have a member of staff trained as our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) and Inclusion Coordinator (INCO). READ MORE

Communication

We keep a Learning Journal of your child’s progress. This record contains photos and observations which illustrate and describe how your child is meeting the objectives of the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. During the year you will be invited to discuss your child’s progress. READ MORE

Testimonials from our parents

I am very pleased I have moved my little boy from nursery to Findon Village Preschool. He has changed so much for the better and there is no morning battle of crying and not wanting to go. Granma and Gran both comment on his behaviour and attitude both outside of preschool and when they pick him up. Very friendly staff.

At first I was nervous about leaving my daughter with strangers, but after a very short amount of time I knew she was in a safe environment in the care of the right people.

My child loves coming to preschool and has thrived. The preschool has a lovely home from home feel and the staff go the extra mile with every child to ensure they are happy and engaged.

A beautiful, fun environment for the children to feel independent and safe.

My child's confidence with other children has grown hugely during his time at preschool, he just loves coming and asks to come on his days off.

Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere = very happy mummy!

It is a stress free, caring, fun and friendly preschool where children make friendships and learn through play and love going back to.

Excellent place for children to grow and learn. My son's speech came on very well in a short space of time.

I couldn't be happier with this preschool. All three of my children came here and loved it! The staff are so helpful and you know your child is in great hands! Thank you!

Amazing teachers they have really helped with my boy who needed some help with his speech, so supportive I could not ask for more in a preschool.
