Who We Are

We are a Charitable Pre-School managed by an elected committee. We are situated in a dedicated Pre-school unit on the grounds of Isleham Primary School. We open every weekday and operate a lunch club. Children have access to a secure enclosed outdoor play area. We also run a weekly toddler group in the village hall.

We aim to enhance the development and education of pre-school children in the Isleham and surrounding villages in a safe, secure and stimulating environment, ensuring equality of opportunity for all. We believe in individual care and attention, fun, friendship, support, learning through play and working in partnership with parents and carers.
