Welcome to Hanham Toddlers Pre-School CIO
Hanham Toddlers Pre-School based at Hanham Methodist Church and the Children’s Centre.
Hanham Toddlers Pre-school is a charity run organisation and it has been running since 1960. It is believed to be the oldest in the country and is very much part of the community.
We are registered with Ofsted to accomodate 94 children at any time and over the year we will have up to 140 children coming to us over the course of a week. Currently we take children from the age of 18 months until they go to school. As of September 2013 the pre-school have operated from both Hanham Methodist Church and Hanham Children’s Centre. Therefore sessions will be allocated accordingly allowing for more flexibility to suit individual family needs.
Registration
You are welcome to visit the pre-school so that we can show you around, explain how we work and answer any questions you might have. Please either call us on 0117 9082406 or or email to hanhamtoddlers@outlook.com.
Opening hours
Our normal opening times are: 8.45am to 2.45pm at Hanham Methodist Church and 9.00am to 2.00pm at the Children’s Centre.
Visits
Before your child starts with us, we invite you to bring them in for a session to start to familiarise them with the pre-school and the staff who will be caring for them.
We will also arrange a home visit so that we can meet your child in their own environment and have the opportunity to talk to you about your child. During these visits you will be given your child’s Transition Book, which includes photographs of different aspects of the pre-school, including the staff who will care for your child. You will keep this book until your child starts with us so that you can look through the book together and use it to familiarise your child with the pre-school environment.
Flexible Hours
Our core hours are from 8.45am to 2.45pm. We offer a variety of different start/finish times further information regarding sessions and days can be found in the prospectus section of the website.
We are excited to be able to accept Nursery Education Grant for eligible parents from the age of 18 months. (again we do not offer staggered start/finish times anymore)
