Wendron Pre-School, located in Helston, offers a welcoming and nurturing environment for young children aged 2½ to 4 years. The pre-school focuses on providing high-quality care and education, working closely with parents to support each child's learning and development.
They aim to integrate into the local community and offer a service that prioritises equality and diversity. The pre-school emphasises the importance of a strong partnership with parents, encouraging induction visits and gathering information about each child's learning preferences, interests, and any concerns.
A dedicated key person is assigned to each child, guiding parents through necessary administrative forms such as medical, accident, and photography consents. This collaborative approach ensures that children feel confident and secure, enabling them to play and learn effectively within the group.
The pre-school encourages prospective families to arrange visits to familiarise themselves with its routines, staff, and other children.

Our setting aims to: provide high-quality care and education for children below statutory school age; work in partnership with parents to help children to learn and develop; add to the life and well-being of the local community; and offer children and their parents a service that promotes equality and values diversity.

Inclusion & environment
All children make good progress, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Parents of children with SEND meet regularly with the highly trained special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) to discuss strategies to ensure their children make really good progress.
Children enjoy exploring nature and the local environment. They find bugs and grow vegetables and herbs. They offer these herbs to the bugs they find as food. Children enjoy watching the trees in their garden change through the seasons and notice the weather each day. Children develop an awareness of their body strength through climbing and negotiating space outside.
