We are a local Pre School providing the best quality care and education for children aged from 2 years to school age, located in the heart of Westhoughton, located in Rear School Street Westhoughton adjacent to St Bartholomews Primary School and we have been providing high quality teaching and care for children for over 46 years.
Our website will give you a brief outline of who we are, our aims and objectives, how you as a parent or carer can be involved in your child's learning and development and how our high standards and quality care will ensure you and your child love Brighter Bunnies Pre-School as much as we do.
Based in Westhoughton, Brighter Bunnies Pre School is a well equipped and well resourced home from home environment. Fully staffed with caring, qualified professionals who love looking after and teaching children.
We provide a large, spacious room to accommodate up to 30 children and an outdoor area where children learn through play.
The pre school is located in Westhoughton and is registered and approved by Ofsted and provides free government funded places to children aged 2, 3 and 4 years old.
We welcome children from age 2 (they are not required to be toilet trained) up to age 5.
Ofsted rate us as GOOD but don't take their word for it, come along and judge for yourself - currently offering late afternoon or evening appointments when pre-school is closed due to Covid restrictions
During their time at Brighter BunniesPre-School your child will be learning skills, acquiring new knowledge and demonstrating their understanding through 7 areas of learning and development:
Children should mostly develop the 3 prime areas first. These are:
These prime areas are those most essential for your child’s healthy development and future learning. As children grow, the prime areas will help them to develop skills in 4 specific areas. These are:
All the fun activities that you do with your child at home are important in supporting their learning and development and have a really long lasting effect on your child’s learning as they progress through school. Even when your child is very young and is not yet able to talk, talking to them helps them to learn and understand new words and ideas.
On our website are two forms which you can use to fill in to help contribute to your child's learning and development record and which will also help us see how they are extending their learning.
The WOW I never knew my child could………. to record what they have done/learned whether at home or which they have learned at our pre school here in Westhoughton and re-enacted at home.
The speech bubble to record things your child has said which reflect their learning, either new words learned or constructing sentences or speaking logically which shows they have processed thoughts or just something funny which makes you laugh!
You can either print off fill these in and bring them into Pre-School or email them to us!
