The range of activities on offer is simply outstanding - from swimming lessons, ballet, forest school, PE lessons, and music, to the many creative and educational opportunities woven into each day. The food is excellent, and we've noticed such positive changes in our daughter's speech, independence, and confidence since she joined. She looks forward to preschool every day and adores her key worker.

What really sets St. Francis apart is how preschool children are part of the wider school community and benefit from the beautiful facilities the school has to offer. We have looked at other preschools in town, but there is truly no comparison.

My child especially adores one staff member in particular who is such a sweet and caring individual. I've seen him running excitedly toward her, and she lovingly picked him up and hugged him. Moments like these really highlight the warmth and dedication of the staff.

He has also been developing so well and progressing really quickly with different skills, which I am sure is due to the staff and activities they do at St Francis.
The facilities are good too as the nursery has use of the main school's facilities like the swimming pool etc. which is great that it is included in the nursery fee.

children.
My child enjoys the activities, and we've noticed that he's becoming more confident and independent since starting at St Francis. The staff are attentive and provide a supportive environment for the children. We're pleased with our choice and would give the school 5 stars.

app updated with meals, (naps and nappies when they're younger), activities, photos and regular updates on what milestones they are meeting. As well as plenty of free play, it feels like a more relaxed school-based approach and she is learning so much.
Since they are attached to the private school, the nursery benefits from their facilities and teachers. The pre-schoolers have weekly swimming, music, forest school and French lessons included in the price. For a small additional fee (about £112/term) they are also able to attend weekly ballet lessons. Even with all these added benefits, we found them to be substantially cheaper than other nurseries in the area. Highly recommend!
