About this day nursery

Luxulyan Pre School, located in Luxulyan Village Hall in Bodmin, Cornwall, has been providing early years education since its registration in 2007. Operating term-time only, weekdays from 8am to 3pm, the pre-school fosters a caring environment where children from 2 to 4 years old settle happily and develop strong bonds with both peers and staff.

The highly skilled team, including a manager with a level 6 qualification and other staff with levels 1 and 3 in childcare, are dedicated to providing a high-quality education. The curriculum is ambitious, preparing children for their next steps in learning and development while focusing on individual progress.

Children are encouraged to be independent, display good behaviour, and develop confidence through positive interactions and well-planned activities. The setting also values strong partnerships with parents, offering daily updates on children's learning and providing guidance for at-home support.

Regular trips within the local community enhance children's understanding of the world around them.
