Inspector highlights
Inclusion & environment
Staff swiftly identify and help children with developmental delays; for example, they addressed speech delays in new two-year-olds by adapting story sessions, introducing visual picture aids, recommending hearing tests and working with parents to limit the use of dummies.
Children choose to play indoors or outdoors, access hats, gloves and waterproof suits, and listen to stories outside with cosy blankets. Staff support physical development through activities such as bouncing on space hoppers, using the water butt and gardening/planting areas, and encourage risk-taking play like balancing on planks and climbing trees.
Both my boys have attended this pre-school and also used the out of school club. They have been fantastic with both boys journeys in helping them flourish throughout the years. I would highly recommended whether it be for pre-school or if your child attends Triangle Primary School then the Out of School Club and Holiday Club is great. The staff are welcoming and friendly, almost like one big family!
Read on GoogleMy oldest has attended the before and after school and holiday provision for 5 years and my youngest has since September, before this attended pre-school. They both love attending, as parents we feel happy and confident they are well cared for provided with lots of activities and opportunities. We couldn’t ask for more. The staff are all, without exception, kind, caring and passionate about what they do. We are very lucky 🫶🏼
Read on GoogleMy husband and I are teachers and both my children attend the wrap around clubs and my youngest attended the pre-school. It's such a warm and friendly place with fantastic staff who really care about the children. They really make the effort to get to know your child. The price is also a real selling point. As a not for profit they are focused on the child not the money - and it really shows in their family approach.
Read on GoogleThe perfect start for both of my children. Would highly recommend.
