Pre School Education for Ages 2 to 5
Nurturing Growth Through Play
At Papplewick Pre School, children develop confidence and curiosity through immersive indoor and outdoor learning with hands-on nature activities in a safe, nurturing environment.
Our Pre School is a committee ran charity which is based at Papplewick & Linby Village Hall.
We offer term-time places for all children and support families who qualify for the tax free childcare funding.


Embracing Early Learning Outdoors
We provide a child-centred preschool experience that encourages independence and exploration through nature. Our children experience learning both indoors and outside at our purpose built Forest School with qualified Forest School leaders.
We are fortunate to have a supportive partnership with the Moor Pond woods group who help maintain the local woodland and wildlife.
Forest school is a main practice that covers many areas of the national curriculum and builds key areas of childs development such as social skills, independence and motor skills in a tranquil setting.
