Our pre-school is at the heart of Axminster, set in Axminster Community Primary Academy and supported by the First Federation Trust.
Our Pre-School is led by a Nursery Lead, supported by a team of highly experienced and trained practitioners. We work very closely with our Reception Class teacher, forming a successful Foundation Stage teaching team. We are also supported by the Head of School. This is unique to the local area and a strength of our provision.
Our aim is to give your child the best possible start and a seamless transition to primary education.
Our pre-school welcomes all children and caters for 2- 5 year olds. We have nappy changing facilities, but ask that parents supply nappies, wipes and nappy sacks.
We are open from 9am to 3.30pm each day in term time. You can select from a morning session, afternoon session or full day. Lunchtime can be added on to a morning session or afternoon session. This is all subject to availability.
At lunchtime, parents can provide a packed lunch or order a tasty school dinner, which is made in our on site canteen. We encourage all children to have a healthy and nutritious meal at lunchtime and a free morning and afternoon snack is provided alongside a choice of milk or water. For up-to-date menu and pricing, please speak to the Administration Team in the main school office. Some children may be entitled to a free school meal if they are attending a full day session.
