Pre-School

When: Every morning during term time: 09.30 — 12.00.

We meet every morning during term time, offering a wide and varied curriculum to the pre-school child and boasting an adult to child ratio of 1:6.

At the Brewery Pre-School we aim

To help each child to reach their maximum potential in all areas of development.
To provide learning experiences through planned play opportunities.
To provide security, challenge and stimulus with adult encouragement and support.
To ease the transition of young children from home to school.

All children are respected, valued as individuals, their potential recognised, valued and nurtured.

Opportunities will be offered to all children to learn through play.
Explore, acknowledge and value similarities and differences between themselves and others.
Learn to share and play co-operatively.
Develop pre-reading skills through simple counting games, building blocks and pattern making, using maths to solve problems.
Practice being scientists using water and sand, food and other materials.
Build health, strength and co-ordination by physical activities, both indoor and outdoor, healthy eating plans and personal hygiene.
Develop self-confidence and independence.

Toys and equipment are cleaned and well maintained, with all staff having the knowledge and time to maintain equipment properly.
Staff attend half termly meetings to plan activities and discuss problems in confidence.

We organize visitors to the playroom and have trips out and about to further enhance the curriculum on offer.

All children will leave the Brewery Pre-School having enjoyed their time with us, and having developed along the stepping stones towards the Early Learning Goals.

Parents are invited to become involved in the running of our Pre-school.
