Fundraising:

This is a very important aspect of the pre-school, as this is how we fund new equipment or special projects. We hold various fundraising events throughout the year and we are always looking for new ideas.

Nativity

A raffle is always held at the end of the nativity, with donations from local businesses.

Shop 2 Drop Fashion Sale

A chance to purchase clothes from the high street at a fraction of the price,  a really fun night.
