Starting Pre-School or Reception is a big step for both children and their parents. At Little King's, we understand how important it is to make this transition as smooth and positive as possible.
Our regular Stay & Play sessions are designed with this in mind. Open to families interested in joining Little King's, these welcoming play sessions offer a relaxed, friendly way for children to begin exploring our environment while parents get to know our dedicated team.
Led by our caring and experienced teachers, each session has a different theme designed to engage your child’s curiosity and help them feel comfortable in our setting. While the children explore and play, parents and carers have the opportunity to meet our staff, ask questions, and see the environment where their child will grow and learn.
We ask parents or carers to stay for the session, as this shared time is a valuable way to build trust and ease the transition into life at Little King's. Refreshments will be provided for parents, and children will enjoy a healthy snack.
We look forward to welcoming you and your child to a Little King's Stay & Play soon.
