Ducklings Pre-School currently operates from 8.45am to 2.45pm each week day, term time only. Our friendly and experienced staff use a mixture of free play and planned, structured activities to stimulate and inspire children as well as encourage their imagination and creativity. Being part of a rural community, outdoor learning is extremely important to us and we spend time all together in our garden area every day, weather permitting.
Every child has a key person who works closely with them, monitoring and recording development and feeding back to parents in a variety of ways. Ducklings works closely with Stoke Climsland Primary School with the majority of our children gaining a place there.
We also run the After School Club at the Stoke Climsland Primary School every day from 3pm until 6pm. These are play based sessions for children of all aged 3 - 11 years.
We pride ourselves on being a small, friendly and family orientated Pre-School where we build great relationships with all the children and their parents.

Ducklings is a registered charity which is run by a committee of parents and employs a team of staff who are all highly qualified and trained, fully experienced and passionate about working with children. Find out more below.
