A journey through play.
We believe in providing a safe, nurturing environment, full of awe and wonder, which builds a strong foundation for life-long learning.
We’re based at the heart of Denmead Village, Hampshire and run our pre-school out of Denmead Memorial Hall.
We plan our teaching with individual children in mind, focusing on children learning through play in a happy and open environment. We have a wide variety of activities for children to access which cover all areas of learning. We plan with individual children in mind using the statutory framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). We include a balance of both adult and child initiated activities.
Our school opened in 1984, and so we’ve built strong connections with the local schools, including Denmead Infants School and Berewood Primary School.
We’re Ofsted approved and rated good at our last inspection (July 2022). You can read the full report here.
