CELEBRATING EACH CHILD
EXPLORING & GROWING
LEARNING THROUGH PLAY

OUR ETHOS

The pre-school is very child centred, celebrating each individual child and supporting their learning and development through play.

“Play is not a luxury
Play is a necessity”

“My son LOVED the preschool – he was eager to go every day!

The staff were so friendly, we were all sad when he finished!”

Our aim

We strive to provide a happy and secure learning environment both inside and outside the classroom where you and your child feel welcomed and valued. Building a positive partnership between home and school is important to us and key to your child’s development.

Every child learns at a different pace and by providing a broad and balanced Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum we can provide exciting and challenging opportunities appropriate to each child. Children will be given time and space to explore their environment and encouraged to initiate their own learning. This will be supported with flexible resources and experienced staff playing alongside your child.

We want these first building blocks in education to form a solid and secure foundation for children to build upon so that they become inquisitive, creative, confident and life-long learners. For more details or to arrange a visit to our wonderful pre-school, please contact grassingtonadmin@uwpf.n-yorks.sch.uk
