Hollywood Pre-School Daycare

The setting setting was opened in 2007 and is based in the Hollywood Primary School site. It caters for 28 3-5 year old children in a session. The setting runs Monday-Friday 8.00am – 4.00pm

It offers funded sessions for 15 and 30 hours, term time only and has wrap around sessions including Lunch at an additional cost. Some sessions are subject to a top up fee. Please call us for more information and a copy of our funding booklet.

The Pre-school is based in one classroom with its own outside area which is partly covered

Our approach for learning is to create for our children an environment that inspires, is exciting and will engage them in their own learning, each and every day.

Our Pre-school is one that thrives on exploring and imagination using the children’s interests to engage them in their own learning. Fun is where it all begins, if our children are having fun then they are learning.

Our Pre-School children are given a range of resources consisting of authentic and real objects which you would find at home and things we have found that have engaged our interests from the natural environment. All of these things as well as our inspiring pre-school team gives all the children an opportunity to thrive and be a part of their own learning adventure.

With our Pre-school being situated on the school grounds it benefits from the school facilities. We work closely with the reception classes, so children who will attend Hollywood Primary School have a seamless transition in the school environment. The resources the school has to offer include the pond and forest school area, library and large outdoor space.

Manager’s Statement

My Name is Nina, I have been with GBNFC since 2006 and manager of Hollywood Pre-school since 2010. I aspire to provide the very best in early years care and education so that children at Hollywood Pre-School can flourish and develop to the best of their individual ability.
I like to plan exciting learning opportunities for children, encouraging them to explore and learn through play, investigate in risky play and encourage them to be independence.
Through play experiences they will gain confidence in themselves and when needed, be supported in their learning by our inspiring team of practitioners who help children in build on what they already know.
Through our stimulating learning environment, we work with the families to achieve the best possible outcome for their children and by including them in getting messy and having fun in workshops or sharing a story and taking time to listen.
