Ewelme Village Preschool

Ewelme Village Preschool

Opened in 1970, Ewelme Village Pre-School is located in the thatched reading room of Ewelme Village Hall, in a beautiful and historic part of Oxfordshire. Set among a 14th century church, almhouses and the oldest continually operating primary school in England, it is an idyllic setting.

Ewelme Village Pre-School has been awarded GOOD in our latest Ofsted inspection, January 2023.  We offer a dedicated pre-school room that does not have to be packed away each day. This provides us with a unique, creative and stimulating space in which we are able to provide fun and exciting opportunities for children to learn through play.

We encourage children to develop independence, self-confidence and respect for others. In partnership with parents and carers we nurture every child’s learning and development, and support them to fulfil their individual potential.
