Our approach

A joyful start to life at Kimbolton

Igniting curiosity, confidence and kindness in every child

At Kimbolton Pre-School, we believe that the early years are the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our approach is rooted in the belief that children thrive when they feel safe, inspired and supported — emotionally, socially and academically.

From their very first day, Pre-School children are immersed in an environment where play is purposeful, exploration is encouraged, and every child is truly known.
