Our show around starts in the baby room, the cornerstone of our setting. we will take you on the preschool journey ending in the preschool room! Any questions you have can be answered on this visit. A member of staff will stay with you around pre school and therefore we do have to schedule in your show around appointments to ensure that we are appropriately ratioed as safeguarding of the children is paramount.​
