About Us
Our Mission
At Pembury Pre-school, we believe that every child deserves a warm and nurturing beginning. From 9 months to school age, we provide a safe, stimulating, and loving environment where children can grow, thrive at their own pace. As a Charity-run setting rooted in our local community, we are proud to offer a caring space where families feel supported, and little ones build strong foundations for life-long learning.
🌿 Our Curriculum
At Pembury Pre-school, we offer a warm, inclusive curriculum based on the EYFS and Development Matters, supporting children from 9 months to school age. Our play-based learning is child-led, nurturing each child’s unique development, interests, and needs — including those with SEND, using the Developmental Journal.
We follow the Three I’s (Intent, Implementation, Impact), promote British Values, and build cultural capital through real-life experiences. As a proud recipient of the London Mayor’s Bronze Early Years Award, we’re committed to high-quality care, strong community values, and helping every child to thrive.
