St George's Dragons is a non-profit making provision run by St George's Catholic Primary School. The primary aim of Dragons is to provide a quality childcare and education service to families in the local community.
We offer full and sessional day care for children aged between two and five years old, from Monday to Friday between 8.00am-5.55pm, 49 weeks of the year, excluding Bank Holidays and staff training days.
We are open to the local community and are proud of our rich cultural and social mixture of family backgrounds.
We have a highly qualified and experienced staff team, all of whom hold or are working towards several recognised childcare/education qualifications. These include national vocational qualifications levels 2 and 3, as well as BA Honours degrees.
Our intention is to help children to develop through their play, to gain knowledge and experiences, which will be relevant to their development and future, in a rapidly changing world.
At St George's Dragons, we work within the Early Years Foundation Stage, offering a rich and stimulating learning environment, which aims to provide a differentiated curriculum to meet the needs of the children within our setting. By building on your child's existing interests and skills, we enable them to learn from the activities that they are involved in. Through this, they will discover the worlds of communication, language and literacy, science and technology, problem solving, numeracy and reasoning, arts, crafts, music and drama.
Above all, we are pleased to have created a welcoming atmosphere of trust and happiness where our children feel secure and cared for. We are proud to give the children who attend St George's Dragons Early Years a learning experience that is both positive and fun!
