Welcome To Pre-School

The foundation stage –

A foundation to life long learning.

The building blocks for the future

Our Pre-school

We are a friendly pre-school in the growing village of Manea set within the grounds of Manea Community Primary School.

Before your child starts with us at Manea Pre-school we will invite you to an initial visit where we will introduce the team and you can ask any questions and see the pre-school.

Please note that we are a PVI setting and having a place at pre-school does not guarantee you a school place at Manea Community Primary School. 

Our leader, Mrs Lisa Stevens, as well as being the school's Early Years Leader and teaching the reception class, is the Deputy Head, KS1 leader, and is an Early Years Lead Practitioner.

Our children are well prepared for starting school as we have very strong links with Manea Community Primary School. There is a wonderful transitional program in place. This includes time spent in the reception class, joint play times with the reception class and lots of visits from Mrs Stevens and Mrs Attrill (HLTA & Early Years Lead Practitioner). We also make good use of the school facilities throughout the year including the hall, playground and field.
