About Us
Welcome to Holyport Pre-school. We offer children aged between 2 and 5 years old, fun and friendship with other children and adults. We are here to create a happy, safe and nurturing environment in which children can have fun and participate in a new variety of play activities through which they learn to share, discover new interests and abilities and work towards the Early Learning Goals as detailed in the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage).
We are extremely lucky to have use of the `Dhesna Childerhouse Hall for our Pre-school. This is a large modern hall that is bright with plenty of space for physical activities. We have a dedicated secure outside area so we can take the children outside on a daily basis. We welcome all families to our pre-school and support families with English as an additional language.
Holyport Pre-School has been established in Holyport Village for over 50 years, it has provided Pre-School facilities and education for generations of local families. We were established since 1965 by a group of mothers to offer Pre-School aged children in the village safe and satisfying play under skilled supervision. Holyport Pre-Shool is a committee run charitable organisation with a very good reputation both with the local community, and Educational Professionals.
