Brook Butterflies Pre School Group

Brook Butterflies enables children to experience a learning
environment where they are accepted and valued as individuals
and can thrive academically and socially.
The curriculum is carefully planned in line with ‘The Early Years
Foundation Stage Statutory Framework’ document. This helps
the children develop educationally/intellectually, socially and emotionally. We aim to encourage
parents and staff to work together to provide the children with the experiences they need to grow
in confidence and independence.

Children can attend Brook Butterflies from the term after their third birthday. We offer the
universal 15 hours (part-time) places where we offer morning or afternoon sessions or a 30 hours
(full time) place (subject to eligibility) which includes the; morning session, dinnertime and
afternoon session. For further information regarding the 30 hours eligibility criteria visit:
https://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk/

If your child is with us all day they may bring in a packed lunch to eat or they can choose from the
hot dinner options in the school hall (the menus are on a 3 week rolling programme).
Parents/Carers are advised of a start date in writing and are given the opportunity to visit the
setting with their child prior to entry.

Butterflies is an enjoyable place where each child feels happy, secure and safe. The children have
daily learning experiences, including communication and language, personal and social
development, physical development, literacy, mathematical development, understanding the world
and expressive arts and design.
We believe that the pre-school stage is an essential part of a child’s education. It provides the
foundation for all future learning.

Morning sessions 8.30am to 11.30am

Afternoon sessions 12.15pm to 3.15pm
For more information, please see “The Brook Butterflies,” page on our school website.
