From the The Ark Pre-School Wantage
The Ark is incredibly happy to have consistently received a "good" rating from Ofsted.
Because we are aware of how significant your kid is, we provide the greatest possible care and education to enable them to reach their full potential.
There is plenty of room for the kids to play and grow.
Please contact or email us if you are contemplating sending your kid to preschool.
We will initially make arrangements for you and your kid to visit The Ark and meet with us. Your kid will frequently start exploring and making friends before we ever introduce ourselves. We will show you around, explain how we operate, and address any questions you may have.
We will provide you an application form to fill out and bring with you, on which you may specify the sessions you want your kid to attend.
You may submit applications for as few or as many sessions as you choose.
At The Ark, preschool is quite flexible. We start smaller children with half-day sessions since we know kids still need naps often.
Your child is still contagious if they have a runny nose that is thick, yellow, or green.
In this situation, your child must remain at home until their runs are normal.
If your child is unwell or has diarrhoea, he or she should be kept at home and should not leave the house again for 48 hours.
