Welcome to 

At St Nicholas Preschool we provide a relaxed, happy and stimulating environment where children learn through play.

We are an Ofsted Registered Charity Pre-School with excellent indoor and outdoor facilities. Our professionally trained and qualified staff guide the children in their learning.

“Play is the highest form of research”

Albert Einstein

At St Nicholas Preschool we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum.

We track and record children’s development using written observations, videos and photographs  in an individual  “Learning journey” that is available to parents via the Tapestry app.

One of our aims is to prepare children for their next chapter, particularly their transition to school (school readiness) this is achieved by developing their independence and self confidence.

We develop these life skills through play, with guidance from our skilled staff. Learning through play gives the children opportunities to independently choose, make decisions, solve problems and develop positive social interactions that prepare them for their next stage.
