Parents

Parents are regarded as members of our setting who have full participatory rights. These include a right to be valued and respected, kept informed, consulted, involved and included.

Our Pre-School recognises parents as the first and most important educators of their children. All our staff see themselves as partners with parents/carers in providing care and education for their children.

There are many ways in which parents take part in making our Pre-School a welcoming and stimulating place for children and parents, such as:

• exchanging knowledge about their children’s needs, activities, interests and progress with our staff.
• contributing to the progress check at age two.
• sharing their own special interests with the children.
• helping to provide and look after the equipment and materials used in the children’s play activities.

• being part of the management of the setting, where appropriate.
• taking part in events and informal discussions about the activities and curriculum provided by the setting.
• joining in community activities, in which the setting takes part.
• building friendships with other parents in the setting.

Joining In

Our Pre-School welcomes parents who would like to help at a particular session or sessions. Helping at the session enables parents to see what the day-to-day life of our Pre-School is like and to join in helping the children to get the best out of their activities – helping with an activity, joining in role-play, reading stories, singing or sharing information about your chosen profession/interests. You can then share your experience of the day with your child. Please speak to a member of staff if you would like to come and support us. This provides a valuable opportunity for all children to see their parents in a new role.

Pre-School Parent Fundraising Group

We would like to encourage parents to join our parent fundraising group, this is essential for Pre-School, to raise funds to be able to purchase new toys and equipment for the children. The parents get together during coffee mornings held at the Pre-School to discuss different fundraising ideas. If you would be interested in joining, please speak to Mrs Hedger or Mrs Crane.

The most wonderful pre school with the kindest and caring staff. My daughter absolutely loves going and always runs in happily and comes out with a huge smile on her face. I always feel very confident that she’s being so well looked after and the staff go out of their way to ensure all the children have a range of opportunities during their pre school years. My daughter particularly loves her yoga sessions and tells us all at home what the different poses are called! She also has access to a range of craft activities, an outside area and a borrow book library. I’ll be very sad to say goodbye when my daughter starts big school.

Fleet is so lucky to have this preschool it is wonderful! The staff are so caring and genuinely go above and beyond for the children. They make such a warm, welcoming environment where every child feels comfortable and happy. I’m honestly so impressed by how many fun and creative activities they pack into each day. From crafts and storytelling to outdoor play and cooking, they really put so much effort into making everything enjoyable and engaging. They’re great at keeping parents in the loop, and you can tell they truly care about every child’s growth and happiness. Couldn’t ask for a better place for my little one!

Joanne Athawes

A fantastic preschool. Both of my children attended here and we could not have wished for a better preschool experience for them. The teachers are so warm hearted, fun and friendly, and my children felt safe and happy. The activities and experiences they put on for the children are brilliant and they made great friendships that continued on to year R. Would absolutely recommend this preschool, couldn’t fault it!

We couldn’t be happier with Fleet Methodist Preschool. Our daughter started in September and has thrived since attending, she’s more confident, sociable and learns lots everyday. They always have numerous activities set up each day, which not only are fun but also helps the children grow. The staff are amazing, always so friendly and there to support parents too. Thank you for such a brilliant set up!!

Stephanie King

An amazing preschool, we couldn't have asked for more. Teachers are friendly and supportive. They all know the kids and it's a happy, positive environment. Staff are well organised and on top of paperwork such as accident and funding forms. It's not just childcare but a nurturing environment for getting them ready for school. Our son is 4.5 and is still challenged and learning, he has never complained about going!

Tessa Walker
