Pre-School Groups in Colden Common

Kingfishers Colden Common Preschool – Ofsted number 110072

At Kingfishers Colden Common Preschool our mission is to provide exceptional care to children whilst providing opportunities which motivate learning, provoke curiosity and create independent learners.

· We help children find their own voices and enable children to have new and exciting experiences, with a touch of Forest School learning.

· We believe in working in partnership with parents and carers to ensure the best outcome for the children by keeping them in the forefront of our minds.

We offer a bright, modern purpose-built environment with great accessibility and a large, secure, ‘all-weather’ garden, which we exclusively use during preschool hours. Covering 430 square meters, the garden consists of a patio and Astroturf area with a large climbing frame, covered sandpit and a bespoke mud kitchen!

Children also benefit from our Allotment School programme, lead by Forest School trained staff, plus weekly trips to Colden Common Primary School and numerous outside organisations (yoga, football, dance for example) who visit regularly.

School’s Out (also based at the Community Centre) offer the children from Kingfishers a breakfast and afterschool club, providing childcare either side of our opening hours which is ideal for working parents.

Our team of dedicated and experienced staff ensure our continuous provision supports each individual child’s development, working with outside agencies and specialists where necessary. We adapt our provision to the needs of the cohort on a regular basis.

We also have a qualified Special Needs Co-ordinator and offer small group work daily for those children who need additional support with their communication skills.

Based in Colden Common’s Community Centre, we are open Monday to Friday, 8.30am – 3pm, (flexible drop off / pick up times available) term time only.  We welcome children from 2 years old up to reception school age.

We offer the Government Funding scheme for 2, 3 and 4 years olds and accept Tax free childcare and childcare vouchers.

We are passionate about what we do but don’t take our word for it - check out our reviews on Google!

We look forward to meeting you soon!
