Nursery Days Pre School

Nursery Days is planning some exciting additions to the provision we already offer! Those already attending know just how busy we are in the preschool this year and with the new starts and those moving up we are full by January/February again!

The village hall preschool will be an extension of what we already offer for those who just wish to receive the 15 hours, although we are just putting feelers out at the moment for interest ....
