​​​The Pre-School is in the heart of the cornish clay village of Roche.
The setting cares for children aged between 3 months-4 years.
It boasts a large outside area with educational spaces for children to freely explore.
Our setting provides a home from home environment where children can feel secure and empowered to embark on their own learning journey.
Our dedicated team of practitioners, support, and model play with children so that they learn independence and develop an understanding that their thoughts, ideas,
and emotions are valid and valued.

"Staff know the children extremely well. They use this knowledge to provide activities according to children's interests and needs. The highly individualised curriculum supports children's engagement and the achievement of their next steps. All children make good progress across all areas of learning." -Ofsted, 2024

“We believe children learn when they have the freedom to explore their environment and create their own play.
Having this freedom allows them to build on their resilience, problem-solving and social skills.
By providing an inspiring environment we aim to motivate and challenge children within their play.
By finding the balance between child led and practitioner led play we are able to create a fascinating and nurturing space with endless learning opportunities.
The early years of a child’s life is the foundation of not only their education but all areas of their development and life skills.
Every child has the right to play and be heard, the child’s voice is the most important aspect to how we as a setting plan and provide for all the children within our care.
We understand that every child is unique and are not comparable to others.
We follow a ‘PLANNING IN THE MOMENT’ approach, in that we base our planning on the children’s interests and respond by implementing resources and extending play based on their choices.”
