Hadlow Pre-School

SENIOR TEACHER’S MESSAGE

Looking over the outside environment towards the Hadlow Pre-school building.

Niki Ladd/Annabel Wyeth It has been another busy year at Hadlow Pre-School. Despite some disruptions we managed a trip to watch Capital E’s production of ‘Seasons’, celebrated Matariki with a concert and shared lunch, and enjoyed a Teddy Bears picnic. We have continued our regular visits with Hadlow School including buddy reading and library visits as well as joining the school for Book Character Day. This year we have initiated a very special relationship with Epiphany Church. We have weekly visits from members of the Church as well as regular walks to the Church. We are very lucky to have had the opportunity to build this connection to further strengthen our Special Character.

Highly qualified teachers ensure each child builds a strong sense of belonging and meaningful relationships. We provide a respectful and inclusive environment full of laughter, exploration, and excitement. Children actively participate in a range of experiences, both planned and spontaneous. The development of early literacy and mathematical skills, along with our Anglican Special Character and pre-school values (kindness, respect, confidence, perseverance and independence) form the basis of our programme. Teachers encourage children to
