Gorran Pre School

We never have more than twenty children in the setting at one time, so your child will benefit from plenty of attention from our staff, whilst socialising and exploring with their new found friends in a safe environment and within the parameters set by the Early Years Foundation Stage.

First thing in the morning is registration time, where your child will sit in a circle on the bumblebee cushions, say "Good Morning", and put their own name up on the board.We talk about the weather outside and what it is doing today, then it is time for Letters and Sounds, using songs like 'Bertha the Bus' to explore the different sounds we can make.

Our ethos at Gorran Pre-School Hoglets is very simple: we aim to provide the best possible start to our children's education by offering a bright, colourful, safe, secure and happy environment in which they can feel confident to explore, have fun and learn through play.

We believe that children should be able to enjoy playing both indoors and outside, as they choose, throughout the seasons, and that a happy child leads to learning and achievement.Continuously support their staff, seeking to maintain and broaden their professional development. Believe they can encourage children to develop towards their full potential in an environment which is safe and secure.

We are incredibly fortunate to receive continued support from our local community and businesses. The generosity of The Lost Gardens of Heligan, and its magical environment, has meant that the children have enjoyed some extra special celebrations, with their parents, outside of the Preschool setting.

Children need a healthy balanced diet, rich in fruit and vegetables for their growth, behaviour and long-term development. Healthy under 5's plays a vital role here at Gorran Pre-School Hoglets, providing us with a framework that we use to deliver nutritious food to our under 5's, so that we can help to give the children in our care the best start in life.
