Local Community - Education - Pre School

Calling all Mum's Dad's, Gran's, Grandad's and Carer's!
Have you ever wondered what goes on in the mind of a three year old!?

It’s amazing how quickly children develop and learn at this age. ‘Why?’ becomes a favourite word and they seem to run on ever-ready batteries, never running out of energy and thirst for new experiences.

Thank heavens for childcare! But it's expensive...isn’t it? Well actually no. You'll be surprised to find out different!

Did you know that ALL children are entitled to a Nursery Education Grant, which is your child’s access to free, part-time, good quality early years education before they reach compulsory school age. This equates to five sessions per week for thirty three weeks a year in term time. A session is usually at least two-and-a-half hours long. Children are eligible for funding for the term following their third birthday.

The pre-school or nursery that you choose should organise all the paperwork for you and apply for the grant on your behalf. This means that it’s as easy as finding a good pre-school and registering your child for the term in which they become eligible.

A warm and friendly welcome is a good place to start when choosing your pre-school and this is exactly what you will get at Lyneham Village Independent Pre-school, located next to Lyneham Junior School in Preston Lane.

Established in 1979, they are a thriving pre-school that pride themselves on the quality of care and education that they provide. Whilst working within the framework of OFSTED’s Foundation Stage they have continually received excellent reports on all six early learning goals.

They adopt an open door policy and welcome mums, dads, grandparents and carers to share their own skills and time. Their qualified and experienced staff members work closely with parents and carers and encourage participation as much as possible to ensure the emotional and educational welfare of your child.

This not only gives parents and carers the opportunity to take an active role in the education of their children but ensures peace of mind witnessing that your child is happy and well cared for in a safe and stimulating environment.

Every parent or guardian has a share in the decision making and a committee of parents is elected at the Annual General Meeting to administer and be responsible for the policy and running of the pre-school.

They have a high ratio of adults to children ensuring individual care and attention to your child. Their aim is to introduce children from the age of 2 years 10 months to basic pre-school activities which serve as a good foundation for learning and introduction for entering mainstream school. Through the use of play in their well equipped classrooms all children are given the widest range of activities to ensure learning is fun and stimulating.

It is important to choose a childcare provider whom you and your family have confidence in. A place where your little one can thrive and you can be sure they are receiving the best possible start. Most pre-schools offer children the thrill of squidging paint between their toes to make a fun picture, but with Lyneham Village Independent Pre-school YOU can have a go as well. So that it isn’t just a case of blind faith. You have a say, you can decide and you can witness how your child is educated. It makes all the difference.
