Our Curriculum

Our children are our curriculum.

When our children leave Pre-School, we would like them to have learnt to be resilient, independent, and curious. We have created our own curriculum which we are really proud of, in very short form our curriculum focuses on the following:

Happiness – To feel safe, secure and happy.
Wellbeing – To have a positive sense of self and confidence in their abilities
Kindness – To show kindness, respect and be considerate to others.
Gratitude- To be thankful for what we have
Communication – To be able to communicate their needs, wishes and beliefs in a variety of ways
Challenge and commitment – To challenge the children and foster a love for learning
Equality – Ensure every child has equal opportunities
Partnership – To create strong partnerships with parents and carers
Celebrate – To celebrate ones own and others achievements and to celebrate diversity.

Throughout each child’s time with us we focus on our vision and we are passionate about supporting children to regulate their emotions.

Our teachers are trained in Wiltshire’s Five to Thrive programme which has provided us with the knowledge and tools needed to support children’s self-regulation.

ABOUT US

What our parents say about us

“Our daughter loved every minute at Crudwell Pre School and we feel utterly fortunate to have such a well run, kind, friendly and professional facility so close to home. The team have prepared our daughter for school with the greatest care and attention to detail. She has flourished and transitioned into normal school life as though she had been there before. We owe a great deal of thanks to Pre School for that success. A highly recommended facility”

Crudwell Pre-School- The team are wonderful, they are very helpful and understanding and also cater to your child’s needs. They are on hand if you need any help. I love the fact they are promoting health eating and give you ideas that could go into a lunchbox. Each one of the team are very approachable, kind and considerate. I would highly recommend Crudwell Pre-School, our child thrived there.

Mum and Dad to a 4 year old girl

“Crudwell preschool provided our daughter with the perfect preparation for her next steps into reception year at school. It is a very welcoming and relaxed environment which introduced all the developmental milestones and promoted different aspects of increasing independence at each child’s pace. Our daughter’s love for art and books meant that she was spoilt for choice here and loved being able to make easy friendships with her peers.
The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive – both to the kids and parents and helped us through these unfamiliar years with reassurance and guidance that was sometimes needed!
The outdoor play area and close access to the playing fields and playground certainly added to the daily experience and the latter was a nice way for parents to made contact also.
We are so grateful for our time at Crudwell and would 100% recommend it to anyone.

“Our two children had a wonderful time at Crudwell Preschool from age two and a half until starting school. It’s a wonderfully warm and friendly environment – really welcoming from the first time we visited and always caring and supportive. They especially loved the outside area and book corner!

Mum and Dad to twins

“Our daughter now age 4 has always been happy to come to pre-school, running in without a backward glance at us. Her development has been a pleasure to watch, as she learns new things and how to play/share with her friends. The teachers are always interacting with the children and having fun. They have a great outdoor space that our girl absolutely loved. It always took us a while to bribe her to come home.
