Visits and Visitors

In order to provide a rich, diverse experience for the children, we regularly supplement our pre-school activities with visits out of the setting or visitors to the setting.

Recent visitors to the pre-school have included;

• a visiting artist (as part of the 5x5x5=Creativity Initiative)

• a creative dance specialist

• a weekly yoga session

• a fun-filled, active, learning experience to music

• football coaching

• a potter

• a farmer, complete with a cow, sheep and the farm dog

• visits from the local pet centre with a wide selection of possible pets

• the community librarian

• musicians, including members of a wind band

• a nurse

• parents and members of the local community to share their interests and skills

Visits out of the setting regularly include

• Salisbury Arts Centre

• Salisbury Library, market and the play park

• Walks in our local woods and fields

• Walks to the local shop to purchase ingredients for our cooking

• the fire station

• a local farm

We have developed close links with Salisbury Arts Centre over the last three years, through the 5x5x5 initiative, and were delighted to take part in the educational aspect of the Yew Tree Project during the Autumn of 2006.
