  Situated in St Lawrence's Church Hall, Little Fawns Preschool and Forest School is an Early Years provision for children age 2 to rising 5, where they can gain a great foundation for their journey into education. We aim to provide high quality care and education for children below statutory school age, working in partnership with parents to help children learn and develop. The local community plays a big part in the life of the setting, using the different experiences widely available to enrich the children's learning and development. Outdoor learning places a large impact on the day to day experiences that the children attending the preschool have. There is a garden area, access to many open green spaces within the churchyard, a woodland area and the local environment around the setting. These are used frequently by the children to enhance their learning experiences incorporating the outdoor environment as a second classroom
