Review Us
  • St Andrews Pre-School, Rochester
St. Andrew’s Pre-School provides a caring and stimulating environment where children are supported as they grow in confidence and independence, where friendships flourish and futures begin. Located close to the main school, the setting offers a gentle introduction to early education while maintaining a nurturing, child-centred approach.

Children follow the Early Years Foundation Stage through play-led and guided learning that encourages curiosity and positive relationships. Younger children can attend part-day or full-day sessions, while older children attend full days with additional wraparound care available to support working families.

Bright, spacious classrooms and thoughtfully arranged learning zones promote development across creative, physical and social areas. Children have access to role-play spaces, craft materials, construction resources, musical activities and calm areas for rest and storytelling. Several secure outdoor spaces provide daily opportunities for physical activity, exploration and nature-based learning.

As children grow, activities gradually introduce early literacy, numeracy and collaborative learning to support a smooth transition into school life. Enrichment opportunities, including outdoor learning and language exposure, help build confidence and broaden understanding. Weekly forest school sessions encourage children to explore the local area and surroundings.

The team is committed to creating a welcoming atmosphere where every child feels safe, valued and motivated, supporting both emotional wellbeing and strong early learning foundations.
