Welcome to Grovelands Park Pre-School set in the village of Grove, Oxfordshire and situated next to the Library and Millbrook School. We reside in a modern building which provides children with wonderful facilities for playing and learning.

 Our Mission Statement

Grovelands Park pre-school is committed to offering children a safe and welcoming environment. Our professional staff nurture and support children as they play and develop.

We offer children the chance to explore their world through a play based approach, promoting independence and participation.

Grovelands Park Pre-school is committed to working in partnership with families and alongside other agencies to provide the best possible outcomes for every child.

Our Core Values

All children have a voice and have the right to be heard.
Families are our partners.
The pre-school does not belong to any one person. It is to be used for the benefit of the community.
We offer equal opportunities for every child.
We proudly follow the United Nations Convention for the Right of the Child (UNCRC).
We have a strong safeguarding ethos.
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
We value our staff and their commitment.
Grovelands has a professional committed workforce.
We value our connection with the local primary schools.
Strong leadership.
The committee value the importance of continued professional development of all the staff.
We encourage our children to learn through play in a free flow setting.
Grovelands Park Pre-school is a community group with charitable status, owned by the parents of the children attending the pre-school and run by an elected committee. We are self-supporting and non-profit making. We are a member of the Pre-School Learning Alliance and are registered with Ofsted who conduct regular inspections to ensure we meet the highest standards of education and care so that each child is cared for and given the individual attention they require.
