Welcome to our Pre-School
Cuckoo Meadow Pre-School offers a warm, friendly and stimulating environment for children aged 2 yrs 9 months up to rising 5 year olds.
We are enviably situated in the centre of North Waltham village with access to safe outdoor play areas. We are lucky enough to have access to two hard standing areas, which we can use during the Winter months for outdoor play. We also, have the use of the village park and playing fields in the warmer Summer months. Our fantastic staff are a team of well-qualified and dedicated professionals with a wealth of early years education experience.

Lunch Club
We run a lunch club every day between 12.00pm - 12.30pm. The children bring their packed lunches with them. It is an opportunity for the children to socialise with their friends whilst having their lunch. The children love attending lunch club and it is great preparation for those starting school in September.
PRE-SCHOOL NEWS
It has been a very busy time for the children of Cuckoo Meadow. Before Christmas they rehearsed very hard for the Christmas Nativity which went off without a hitch and all the children were brilliant and had a great time doing it. Later that week Santa popped by on his sleigh and handed out presents at their Christmas party. The staff of Cuckoo Meadow would like to thank all the parents for the lovely Christmas presents they received. Everyone had a lovely break and returned in the New Year very excited to be back.
As the weather is very changeable at the moment, please ensure your children have appropriately named clothing as we play outside each day.

Comments Book
For parents that don’t know we have a comments book hanging on the notice board outside and we would welcome any comments you may have relating to pre-school. It may be that your child has particularly enjoyed an activity, or really liked the snack that was offered at a session, we would appreciate any feedback you can give us!
Holiday Bear
If you are planning a holiday in term time we would be grateful if you could give us plenty of notice. We have a holiday bear in pre-school who is very well travelled and is in need of a holiday, so please ask if he is available for you to take with you the children love to take him away and he really is little bother.
Parent Rota
Please don't forget if you can help out, please sign up on the parent rota that can be found on the door in Pre-school. The children absolutely love it when mums, dads and grandparents come and help out.
