We encourage your child to grow at a pace that they are comfortable with and support each of them as individuals.  We recognise mums and dads as the first and most important educators of their children and as such, Morchard Bishop Pre-School staff see themselves as partners with you in providing quality care at the start of their education process.  Our EYFS philosophy is ‘building a love of learning that will last a lifetime’.  At Morchard Bishop, we place great value on the development of children as individuals and providing them with the skills, knowledge and understanding they need to prepare them for learning. Our aim in the EYFS is to build strong foundations rooted in academic success as well as to achieve to their full potential socially, emotionally and spiritually, so that ultimately our pupils go on to be active citizens of society and happy, curious life-long learners.

 

Your child can choose to bring a packed lunch, or opt for a freshly prepared hot dinner, cooked in the adjoining school kitchen at a small extra cost (you can choose meals in advance from a varied menu, including vegetarian options).  The meals are ordered online using 'ParentPay.com' , please contact a member of the Pre-School staff for more information.

 

When your child begins our Pre-School we will enrol them on to a programme called 'Tapestry' where you will be able to access your child's learning journal and upload relevant photographs.  All Pre-School pupil's parents have access to Tapestry - please also see Morchard Bishop Pre-School Facebook page for more photographs.

 

The majority of our children transfer to Morchard Bishop Primary School and we ease this transition for the older Pre-School children with weekly visits to the Reception Class. We are able to share the space in the school grounds, making use of the school field, the Roundhouse and the school playground.
