Our mission<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blofield Preschool believes that children flourish best when their personal, social and emotional needs are met. We aim to provide an inclusive, stimulating range of experiences and activities for the children to make sense of their world and become valued members of their community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We work in partnership with parents\/ carers to effectively meet the needs of each individual child in our care and to ensure they feel happy, valued and secure in our setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We work within the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework to plan and provide quality, developmentally appropriate activities and learning opportunities. <\/p>\n<\/div>

The outside play area is fenced off and is completely secure, allowing children the opportunity to play with our wide range of outdoor toys including balance bikes, sandpits, slides, see-saws, balls, hoops and cars.
