Welcome to Little Bells Pre-School, an excellent early years learning environment, based at Belthorn Academy Primary School. The pre-school age is such an important stage for your three 3 year old that we have invested in training for our staff so that the pre-school leader is now a qualified teacher, working alongside two qualified experienced practitioners.

We follow the Early Foundation Stage Curriculum. The curriculum is statutory for all children in England. Pre-School and Reception teachers plan together in order to plan continuous learning for all the children, embed skills and challenge children.

Days spent in pre-school are filled with fun and exciting activities. During sessions there are both focused adult led activities and planned learning throughout the continuous provisions for the children to access. We provide opportunities for mark making, reading, maths, malleable play, sand, water, construction play and small world.

We have a large outdoor area just for the early year’s children. We have a mud kitchen, a maths area, a play house, climbing walls, a sand pit and a stage to build our imagination skills. We also have bikes, scooters, large construction materials and plenty more exciting resources, enabling us to provide many outdoor learning opportunities. We are lucky to be set in a semi-rural location next to a farm.
