Welcome to the website for St Michael's Pre-School located in the warm and friendly village of Hilperton.
This wonderful and cosy pre-school first opened in 1980 and has been guiding the development of children in Hilperton and its surrounding areas ever since.
Our members of staff are from the local area and many are parents of children who have attended St. Michael’s Pre-school. We believe that a high adult to child ratio is essential in providing good quality pre-school care. In our pre-school we have at least one member of staff to each eight children in the three and four-year-old sessions, and one member of staff to each four children in the two-year-old session.
Our curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. Our keyworker system enables us to ensure a planned curriculum tailored to the needs of each individual child. By means of developmentally appropriate play activities and a high level of individual adult input, we offer a curriculum which leads to nationally approved learning outcomes and prepares children to progress with confidence to the National Curriculum at the age of five years.
Parents play a key role in our pre-school and we actively encourage you to get involved with the committee and day to day assistance during sessions if you are able to.
