From the Busy Bees Pre-School
For more than 24 years, we have welcomed kids from Pannal, Harrogate, and the neighbouring West Yorkshire and North Yorkshire communities. Our autonomous preschool is located in the Pannal Primary School's grounds in the community of Pannal. Many of our kids—but not all—move on to Pannal Primary School, where they begin school alongside the acquaintances they established at Busy Bees. We are fortunate to have a team of committed, knowledgeable employees who are passionate about giving kids the best possible start in their education, developing strong, trustworthy bonds with kids and their families, supporting kids' interests, and creating a nurturing, safe environment where kids can flourish. During the academic year, Busy Bees Pre-school offers weekday morning sessions from 8.45am to 11.45am, a lunch club that is optional until 12.45pm, afternoon sessions from 12pm to 3pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and full days from 8.45am to 3pm on the same days. After the age of three and for qualified 2-year-olds, we provide paid childcare spots. Childcare vouchers are honoured here. Ofsted inspects us frequently to make sure that the level of care and instruction we offer satisfies their requirements. Within our environment, we strive to provide equal opportunity to all children and families by always exhibiting respect, tolerance, and understanding between us.
