What we do
We take children from 2 years old and provide them with opportunities to learn through fun activities and new experiences until they start at big school.
We have lots of experience in supporting children who have unique abilities and needs.
We are one of the only preschools nationally (if not the only) to employ a family support worker. We recognise that life can throw up challenges which can add pressure to parenting and so a little help or support can make a big difference.

Who we are
Over 40 years ago a play group was set up in the building of Fleet Baptist Church. Over the years there have been changes both with the name, the venue and the staff team, however the desire to bring the Christian principles of inclusivity, equality and love remain.
As a Christian Preschool we:
- are inclusive. We welcome families from any faith or belief system.
- promote equality. We believe that all are equal in the site of God regardless of their gender, class, race, ethnicity, or ability.
- recognise difference.While all are equal, sometimes additional support, resources or interventions are required to allow children to achieve the same outcomes.
- promote individuality.Variety and diversity are an indication of a creative God. We don't want all children to turn out the same, but be free to grow into their uniqueness.
- demonstrate love.We believe children develop best when they feel safe, secure and loved.
