In April 1996 we employed our first play leader and the Preschool opened with support from lottery funding.\u00a0 Sessions increased to 3 per week by September 1996 and we became an accredited Preschool offering places to 3 and 4 year olds.<\/span><\/p>\n In January 2001, with the introduction of government funding for 3 year olds, full day care was offered for 2 days a week which was extended to our current 3 days a week in January 2007.\u00a0 We began to offer places for 2 year olds in September 2013, inline with government 2 year funding.<\/span><\/p>\n We have deep appreciation to the committee<\/a>, staff<\/a>, organisations and wide community who have had the vision, commitment, dedication and have supported the Preschool over the years.\u00a0 This has enabled us to build a well established, committee run, and professionally managed Preschool which currently employs experienced, qualified staff, providing sessions over 3 days for children aged 2-4.\u00a0 Our staff are passionate about offering a safe, happy, caring, nurturing and stimulating environment<\/a> delivering professional childcare that enables children to reach their potential and become capable learners.\u00a0 <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″] Positioned off a country lane, next to Highampton CP School, the Village Hall was built in 1994 and offers everything we need for a secure and well-equipped Pre-school, including a free and spacious car park.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_gmaps link=”#E-8_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” size=”300″ css_animation=”fadeInUp”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5407″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”5417″ parallax_speed_bg=”3″ el_class=”countdownpanel” css=”.vc_custom_1630923818309{margin-top: -50px !important;padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5422″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]A steering committee was created in October 1995 to form a playgroup provision at Highampton and the doors to a mother and toddler group were opened on Friday 5th January 1996.
