Stepping Stones Pre-School, Parwich is celebrating after achieving an overall ‘Good’ rating after their recent Ofsted Inspection.
Stepping Stones runs from the new Memorial Hall in the village Monday to Friday 9am until 12 noon during term time.
The Pre – School was awarded a ‘Good’ in all areas of the inspection which included “The Quality of the Provision in the Early Years Foundation Stage”. In the report it highlights “A stimulating and challenging environment is created through a range of activities and experiences that cater for the vast majority of the early years learning goals”. It was also commented on that the children help during snack time “Their independence skills are well promoted as they help fetch the snack trolley and set the table”.
The Pre-School also make good use of the outdoor space at the Hall “Here children enjoy energetic play running around, kicking balls or riding bikes”. It was also quoted in the report “Children show great excitement when discovering a ladybird outside. Staff help them understand how to handle the creature carefully and use a magnifying glass to look at the colour and spots in closer detail”.
This is fantastic news for the Village and the Pre-School. We are currently offering a free taster session on Wednesday mornings. If anyone requires any further information on Stepping Stones please contact Helen Downing 01335 346317.
