Long Crendon Pre-School and Out of School Club is a non-profit making community charity run by the Parents' Committee. It was formed in 1968 and belongs to the families that use it. The Pre-School provides a stimulating, active and responsive atmosphere, with a supportive and encouraging adult/child ratio of 1-4 for 2-3 year olds and 1-8 for over 3's.
The Out of School Club provides wraparound care for children aged 3-11 years old. At Pre-School, children learn through play. By play we mean their self-generated, self-directed activity. This may involve the child in huge physical or intellectual struggle and long periods of concentration, but it is still play if engaged in spontaneously from choice.

Long Crendon Pre-School and Out of School Club believes that you as parents are the first educators of your children. We seek to work in co-operation with all parents and primary carers to meet the needs of the children and families that use our facilities.

Although this Pre-School strongly recommends that children attend one under-five's provision only, we recognise parent's rights to choose to send their child to more than one establishment and we are happy to accept children attending other placements, providing that the child concerned does not exhibit signs of stress and confusion.
