At Fairfield Preschool, our aim is to provide a fun, safe, and caring place where children can learn, grow, and develop through play. Our indoor and outdoor areas help children build confidence, creativity, and curiosity.
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. This helps children learn skills across seven areas of learning, giving them a strong start before they move on to Reception and beyond.
Learning is planned around each child. Our staff carefully watch how children learn and play so they can support their interests, development, and progress. We also help children build social skills and independence.
We believe learning starts at home. We work closely with families and encourage strong relationships between parents, carers, and staff. Parents are involved in their child’s learning at every stage.
Our preschool is based alongside Fairfield Community Primary School. This brings many benefits:
Families are welcome to visit our preschool, meet the staff, and see how we can support your child.
