Pre-school classes are for children aged 2-5 years. Each session is based around a theme and begins by introducing a new sound and story. Children will then be provided with a range of stimulating activities, carefully chosen to ensure that children are learning valuable pre-reading and writing skills whilst they PLAY!

Toddler Sense is the perfect next step from your Baby Sensory journey as it provides carefully planned multi-sensory classes for toddlers aged 13 months – 5 years.

Each class is carefully planned in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage to support physical development, communication, social and emotional skills that will form the foundation for all future learning.
