Happy, Healthy, Confident

Our Ethos

Happy!

Happy, engaged and curious children are inspired and motivated to learn.

Healthy!

Through our child-led approach, children are encouraged to take measured risks to aid their development and so nurture their self-esteem and well-being.

Confident!

We want to inspire children to embrace their individuality and grow into well-rounded, confident individuals.

Our Vision

Children to grow as individuals whilst having fun, making friends, building trusting relationships within our St Vincent's family, enabling children to feel loved and supported.

The purpose of the Pre-school is to assist the development and education of children under statutory school age and resident within the Parish of St. Vincent de Paul, Knutsford, Cheshire (The Parish) and such aim will be achieved by:

• Offering appropriate play facilities and training courses together with the right of parents to become involved in such activities, ensuring that such activities offer opportunities for the children within the Parish who will have the first opportunity to subscribe for places and thereafter for all children regardless of race, culture, religion or means.

• Encouraging the study of the needs of all children and their families and promoting public interest in and recognition of such needs.

• Promoting children’s right to be strong, resilient and listened to by creating an environment in our Setting that encourages children to develop a positive self image, which includes their heritage arising from their colour and ethnicity, their language spoken at home, their religious beliefs, cultural traditions and home background.
