St. Luke's Preschool
We have been involved in providing childcare for over 20 years we understand that choosing the right Pre-school for your child is probably one of the most important & difficult decisions you will have to make.
St Luke’s Pre-School is a great place to bring your children.
We really hope that the information we provide you with will help make that decision a little easier although we believe that nothing can substitute a visit to our Pre-school so you can see for yourself why OFSTED describe our pre-school as “outstanding”.
About Our Team
We have a wonderfully caring team of practitioners who are trained to nurture, care for and inspire every child in their care to be the best they can be and because we don’t believe that “one size fits all” every child is treated as an individual.
About Early Years
A child’s first step into preschool is also a first step to independence, at St Luke’s Preschool our goal is to encourage that independence through educational activities that are fun and stimulating. It’s a big exciting world out there and we want children to leave for their next steps in life equipped for the journey. As a childcare provider we are required to deliver an educational curriculum that meets the government standard of the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage). This ensures each child understands things like numbers, letters, social skills and reaches specific learning goals ahead of school. We cover the 7 areas of learning in our classrooms and through our curriculum on a daily basis. However, we want children to arrive at school with much more than that.
Free Childcare
All 3 to 4-year-olds in England can get free early education or childcare. Depending on a parents circumstances 3 and 4-year-old can receive between 15 and 30 hours free childcare with an approved childcare provider like St Luke’s. Some 2-year-olds are also eligible for 15 hours free childcare, for example, if you get certain benefits.
