Welcome to Little Owl
Little Owl is a small friendly pre-school, after-school and holiday club run by a voluntary committee, which employs dedicated and highly qualified staff. At Little Owl we want the very best for your child and we understand that to enable them to reach their full potential, they must feel happy, valued, safe and secure and this is always our aim.
Situated within Dry Drayton Primary School grounds, we have a lovely bright room and garden space. Our close relationship with the school provides opportunities for occasional group activities and allows us to work closely with Reception staff to ensure that if your child follows on to the school, they have the best start with a strong foundation within the school.
Pre-school is an exciting and important stage in your child’s life and we hope that they will enjoy their time with us. We aim to meet individual children’s emotional, physical and intellectual needs sensitively and flexibly, building on their skills and interests during their time with us. The Early Years Foundation Stage provides a statutory framework for this, putting children’s learning and development within the wider context of their welfare and wellbeing.
We are committed to providing a safe, caring and inclusive environment and challenge any form of discrimination, actively promoting equality of opportunity for all children and families in our community. We hope to reflect a wide range of cultures and lifestyles, keeping an awareness of each individual child’s needs at the centre of our practice. We ensure that all children and families are equally valued and welcome your support and involvement which we feel is fundamental to delivering high quality education and care.
