The best Preschool around.
The staff go above and beyond for you and your child. I have been overwhelmed with the time and effort they put in and some of the things they come home with are keepsakes forever.
Highampton Preschool has a fantastic setting with a large indoor hall and outdoor space.
All the staff are welcoming and give the children exceptional learning experiences. The children receive great care and also come home happy. The nurturing environment and the family atmosphere mean the children develop as they would at home with their parents. Children are encouraged to develop their independence through many activities meaning they are ready for the next step into primary school.
My son is very very happy at Highampton Preschool.
The staff are wonderful and have created such a caring and supportive environment where the children thrive. I’m regularly brought home the most wonderful crafts and my son beams whenever I mention preschool or any of the preschool teachers. I feel very lucky that he has a place at Highampton.
Highampton Preschool is a warm, friendly, fun environment with great crafts, activities and toys.
The staff are kind, supportive and always make sure the children have fun. They really care and help children develop their potential.
