Wivenhoe Pre School

Wivenhoe Pre School A small parent led charity, run by a committee who are dedicated to serving the community.

The Wivenhoe Pre School is a small friendly committee run group that has been established in Wivenhoe for over 25 years. Our main aim is to prepare your child for school, having learnt good manners, a respect for other people with plenty of self confidence and a positive approach to learning. We will provide a safe, secure and stimulating environment in which all children can achieve their goals a

t their own pace. We work within a framework which ensures equality of opportunity for all children and their families. We follow the Early Years guidance when it comes to our broad curriculum and endeavour to make all learning fun
Our staff are experienced in all aspects of child care and are all mums too; some of us are now grandmothers! If you would like more information about daily life at the Pre School please email us and we will send you a full prospectus.

We have had an amazing first week. The children settled back in very quickly, they all had great fun exploring the new environment and toys. We have greeted lots of new families into our preschool community and look forward to meeting more next week. We had lots of fun exploring the school fields with flower picking and parachute games on Friday.

We are always looking at ways to improve and build upon the children's development. We are about to set ourselves our biggest mission so far.... We would like to purchase a summer house for the garden. This is a great space to be used in all weathers as an outside classroom. The enrichment opportunities this could offer the children are amazing.
If any of the preschool current/old families and friends have any help regarding fundraising/discount purchases we would be very grateful. Also in time the support and skills with building it.
Photos are some inspiration for our vision.

Last week our theme was 'maths' the children were exploring counting, number recognition, more and less along with number lines. They have enjoyed drawing hopscotches in the garden and jumping along the numbers. In small groups we discovered floating and sinking discussing weights and guessing what they thought would happen.
We made naan breads to follow along for our diversity topic of learning all about india.
The children spontaneously draw round one another in the garden, this sparked the learning of counting our eyes, ears, legs, arms etc. Along with the different heights of each child
Then a great surprise at the end of the week, our new mud kitchen got delivered on Friday afternoon. Can safely say it was a big hit, they children loved having fun and explore and planning what they were going to do with it this week. It was made by a lovely small local company https://www.facebook.com/salvagestitchrestore. They were great helping us with our budget and making it personalised for us. A lovely couple, who you can tell take pride in their work. We would highly recommend them.
