From the Ladybird Forest Pre-School Ampthill
In January 1990, Ladybird Forest Pre-School opened its doors at the Ampthill Methodist Church.
Initially, five morning programmes and five afternoon sessions each week were offered by Ladybird Forest Pre-School.
We launched a Holiday Club for kids ages 3 to 7 in July 2008.
All of the children that attend our pre-school were introduced to our Forest School in September 2013.
This is a brand-new project to promote kids' learning through contact with nature.
We are currently Ampthill's only preschool that provides each kid with a dedicated weekly 1-hour group Forest School session.
Ladybird Forest Pre-School is still doing well and is constantly seeking for methods to develop and broaden.
Children attending Ladybirds will continue to be fed into BOTH Russell Lower and the Firs Lower schools in Ampthill as well as Maulden Lower and other Lower schools in the area because we are a totally independent preschool.
