Welcome

Welcome to Great Missenden Pre-School

At Great Missenden Pre-School we have a child-led approach to learning. Planning is based on each child's individual needs and interests.

We follow an 'In The Moment' approach which allows flexibility of providing first hand experiences that are based on the children's interests and needs.

We encourage children to take risks in their play and provide challenging and stimulating activities within a child-led approach to learning. 

Pre-school runs during the school term time, in line with the main school.

Children can attend when they are 2 years old, but can only start at the start of the term they turn 3 year years old, when they will be eligible for 2 year old funding.  

Each session is for 3 hours:

Mornings – 8:45am - 11:45am

Afternoons – 12:15pm - 3:15pm 

All day -  8:45am - 3:15pm

Children can attend for a minimum of 4 and maximum of 10 sessions in a week. 

Government Funding is available for up to 15 hours, or up to 30 hours if eligible, which can be used in conjunction with a second setting / childminder.

For information about funding and eligibility, please visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk  

Any hours not covered by Government funding will be charged at £7 per hour. 

Children are also welcome to use our wrap-around facilities; Breakfast Club runs from 7.30am and our After School Club until 6pm. For more information visit our extended services page.
