BIRDHAM PRE-SCHOOL AT A GLANCE
Our beautiful little Pre-School and Day Nursery within the village of Birdham, near Chichester, West Sussex, sharing the grounds with Birdham CE Primary School.
​
Offering your child fabulous fun filled days helping them develop and learn through play.
We love having different themes and events to focus on, learning different celebrations all over the world, charity days and fundraising themed days, we even occasionally throw in a dress up day too.
We have an open door policy so children can choose to spend their free play time indoors or outside – whatever the weather! Safe and enclosed, we have sun shades to protect through warmer days but also to protect us from the wind in the winter too.
It is a valuable space for the children’s physical and social development and is used daily.
