Centre Pre-School

Welcome to Centre Pre-School

Centre Pre-School has been part of the Prettygate community since 1973. As a charity run setting, we are proud to offer a safe, caring and family centred environment where children can grow in confidence and independence.

For over 50 years, our focus has remained the same. Every child is treated as an individual. Every child is listened to. Every child is supported to thrive.

Our Ethos

We believe children learn best when they feel secure, valued and encouraged. Our team works closely with families to create strong, trusting relationships that support each child’s journey.
New Project (33)

We focus on learning through play, building confidence and independence, and nurturing imagination and curiosity. We form strong bonds with children and families, creating space for emotional and social growth while ensuring every child feels heard, understood, and supported.

New Project (38)

We are proud to be an inclusive setting. Our designated Sensory Area offers a calm and supportive space for all children, especially those with SEN needs.
This environment helps children self regulate, explore safely and feel fully supported throughout their day.

New Project (39)
Your child’s safety is our highest priority. We follow a robust safeguarding policy and ensure all staff are trained, confident and committed to maintaining a secure environment.
We also operate an open door policy. Families are welcome to speak with us at any time.
