In Fernham Pre-school we have the space... to learn, make friends & have fun! It is our mission to ensure that we support each child's learning and development in a way that suits them!

Fernham Pre-school provides a nurturing and enriching environment for pre-school aged children. Our experienced educators focus on fostering social, emotional, and cognitive development through play-based learning and age-appropriate activities. We are committed to preparing your child for a successful transition to school.

We are a group of around 16 children all aged 2 ¾ – 4 years.
We aim to provide personalised learning, development and care and we do this through planning for your individual child. During their time with us we carefully observe and assess their interests and progress, allowing us to provide activities and experiences that interest them personally.
Creative development is a major part of our daily routine and children get plenty of opportunity to express themselves with paint, chalk and playdough as well as learning the behaviours of natural materials like  sand, soil and water. We have an ‘imaginative play area’ giving the children space to develop their personal, social and emotional behaviour and our weekly timetable incorporates lots of problem solving and numerical activities to give children a broad concept of Maths. The day starts with a chat about the weather, the weekend or perhaps our family and encourages the children’s conversation.
All of our work ensures we make progress towards the ‘Early Years Foundation Stage’ and we feel our Pre – School is the the perfect preparation for school. 

Bridget is the Pre-school leader and is fully qualified to care for children. She is great at building strong, trusting relationships with children and is very committed to her job, completing all of the planning required. Bridget works alongside Rosie who has worked for Annabelle's Nursery for over 4 years and is an amazing asset to the team.  Both girls are supported by Sophie who is a fantastic Pre School assistant.
