At St Barnabas Preschool, we believe every child is a unique gift, ready to explore, discover, and grow in a warm and nurturing environment. Our play-based learning approach encourages curiosity, creativity, and confidence—building a strong foundation for lifelong learning. With caring teachers, small class sizes, and a vibrant community spirit, we provide a safe and joyful space where children can flourish academically, socially, and spiritually. At St Barnabas, we partner with families to inspire a love of learning and a sense of belonging that extends far beyond the classroom. Come and see how your child can shine with us! 

Choosing St Barnabas Preschool means giving your child the best possible start in a caring, creative, and inspiring environment. Our experienced and dedicated staff, which includes two fully qualified Primary School teachers, nurture each child’s individuality, helping them develop confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning through play-based exploration. We offer tailored speech and language and early maths interventions to ensure every child reaches their full potential, providing extra support where needed to build strong communication and numeracy skills. With a much higher adult-to-child ratio than school nurseries, we’re able to offer more individual attention, stronger relationships, and a deeper understanding of each child’s needs and interests. This personal approach allows us to create meaningful learning experiences and support children’s emotional wellbeing as they grow. At St Barnabas Preschool, children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn — growing into confident learners ready for the next stage of their education.
