The Little Hut Pre School provides an outstanding early years experience for children aged 2 to 4 years in Newcastle Upon Tyne. Children thrive in an environment where their behaviour is exemplary, fostering superb friendships and displaying high levels of respect and excitement.
They are encouraged to be curious and independent learners, confidently investigating and selecting resources for their imaginative play. Leaders and staff share a remarkable vision, crafting an exciting curriculum that ignites children's natural curiosity.
The nursery places a strong emphasis on outdoor learning, where children eagerly engage in activities such as painting with water on walls, discussing their creations with peers. This approach, alongside the carefully shaped environment, effectively extends their literacy skills.
The dedicated team ensures that children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, excel in all areas of their development. This is supported by leaders who strategically target funding for eligible children and work collaboratively with professionals and parents to tailor support.
Staff actively participate in meetings with professionals, consistently monitoring actions to help children achieve their individual targets. Partnership with parents is a key strength, with families continually involved in their child's learning journey.
The nursery also actively engages with the local community, involving residents in open days and celebrations, and supporting elderly residents through initiatives like food bags and parcels.

First thing to say I can't put them in words. They are absolutely great and my dougther was there a 4 years ago and my son now and we see a big improvement in him and the way they teach and treat them it makes me feel proud of having this nursery here. The member of staff are absolutely supportive and kind and friendly and I feel like i take my kids to leave them with a family. Helen is fantastic and we thank her for this lovely management. God bless you all.
