At Pippins Preschool we aim to make everyone feel welcome and provide a caring, happy and secure setting supporting the development, learning and care of your child.
We will work towards the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), and guide your child on their way to his/her successful transition to school. All children are welcome and we accept children from 2 years 6 months old up to 5 years old.
At Pippins we benefit from two large play rooms, and a kitchen, along with two secure and private outside play areas with sand pits, a sensory area, a climbing bridge, a covered pavilion, seating areas, plus much, much more.
Pippins is proud to be managed by an elected voluntary committee, ensuring major decision making is in the hands of our elected parents.
Government funding and hourly fees only partially cover the cost of running our setting. We therefore rely on fundraising to provide the best possible environment for our children. This means we can bring visitors into the setting, can ensure resources and learning materials are kept up-to-date, and can offer our staff additional training above and beyond the minimum required level.
Join easyfundraising and you can collect free donations for us every time you buy something online. It won’t cost you a penny extra so please help us to raise funds: www.easyfundraising.org.uk
