Pre-School Provision at Far Forest

Welcome to Little Acorns Pre-School

Our Pre-School nursery is led by a fully qualified teacher and our Early Years Leader.  We follow the key areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage profile, providing stimulating activities for learning.  A balance of child-initiated and adult-led opportunities encourage your child to learn new knowledge and skills in a fun and purposeful way. The development and achievements of your child will be tracked and shared with you Class Dojo, termly progress updates, termly parents evening and end of nursery report.

Being part of a school allows us to use facilities such as Forest school, the hall for PE, large playground for bike play and daily mile track.  If you choose a place at our school for Reception, your child will already be familiar with the building and staff.
