Little Pippins Preschool

"I couldn't have wished for a better start for my daughter's time at school than you all have, so thank you," I said to the group of lovely, kind people.

Little Pippins Pre-school began as St. Johns Pre-school more than 30 years ago, but when the option arose to have a purpose-built pre-school and outdoor space within a children centre, we were really grateful for the opportunity.
Little Pippins is a registered charity that is run by the local community on a non-profit basis.
Now that we have expanded and taken over the building, we are able to provide early years care for children ages 2 to 11.

The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), established by the government to ensure high-quality provision, serves as our guide.
Our approach revolves around the four themes listed in the EYFS: the unique child, empowering relationships, enabling environments, and learning and development.
More information on the Early Years Foundation Stage may be found on each group page. We cover the three Prime Areas of Learning and the four Specific Areas.
to pick up and drop off your children on schedule.
Your child will be assigned a key person when they enrol at Little Pippins Pre-School, and the name of the key person will be communicated to parents in writing.
When your child starts the setting, you will also meet their key person.
A key person is a selected staff member who will be in charge of keeping an eye on your child's growth and development while they are with us.
The key person is in charge of maintaining accurate records of your kid's development and accomplishments. They will also communicate directly with the Pre-School Manager and you, the parents, on any worries they may have about your child.
Three key person meetings are scheduled per year.
Ad-hoc meetings with your child's key caregiver are encouraged, but they must be scheduled in advance to guarantee that the right child-to-staff ratio can be preserved.
To maintain effective communication and engagement with parents, a diary system has been put in place.
Here, we can record the child's activities in preschool, their progress, whether they've tried any new foods, etc.
A staff member will fill them out at least once per week.
This offers you the chance to record what your kids have accomplished at home and any new things they have learned.
