St Nicholas and St Faith Pre-school

St Nicholas and St Faith Pre-school opened in 1986 and operates from the main hall and enclosed rear garden of the St Nicholas and St Faith Church premises, situated in Saltash town centre.

We are registered for a maximum of 24 children and operate with a high staff-to-children ratio.

We offer a wide range of activities, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. Each session is planned using weekly and termly topics and themes, which are designed to enable your child to get a broad experience whilst covering all of the EYFS Framework.

When children come home at the end of the day,
The question they’re asked as they scurry to play
is, “Tell me what you did today?”
And the answer they give makes you sigh with dismay.
“Nothing, I did nothing today!”

Perhaps nothing means that I played with blocks,
Or counted to ten, or sorted some rocks.
Maybe I painted a picture of red and blue
Or heard a story of a mouse that flew.

Maybe I watched the gerbils eat today,
Or went outside on the swings to play.
Maybe today was the very first time
That my scissors followed a very straight line

Maybe I lead a song from beginning to end,
Or played with a special brand new friend.
When you’re in pre-school
And your heart has wings,
“Nothing” can mean so many things!!
