Our Pre–School is situated at the top of the main school site, in its own purpose built setting adjacent to our school community centre. Our current provision operates across two rooms and has access to a large outdoor classroom and wonderful garden area.
We have very close links with the school and enjoy using the school site for P.E and Welly Boot, joining with the classes for fun activities and taking part in whole school collective worship.
Pre-school is a very exciting and important stage in your child’s life and your child’s early years’ experience should be engaging, active and fun whilst also nurturing to support their development and learning needs.
Our motto here at Tewkesbury C of E is ‘learn together; shine forever’. We want the very best for your child and we understand that to enable them to shine and reach their full potential, they must feel happy, valued, safe and secure and that comes through the essential relationships that are built with the team here in Pre-School.
Our team of key practitioners are dedicated to building strong relationships not only with the children but with you as parents and carers too. We value our strong links with parents and recognise the importance of these partnerships.
We provide a variety of sessions and currently cater for children from the age of 2 years old up to the age of 4 when they start school.
