From September 2026, we will be opening a School Based Nursery class. This expansion to our school is an exciting time to further develop the high quality Early Years provision that we currently offer. Our core offer for Nursery will be for children aged 2-4 years, with children eligible to start the term after their 2nd Birthday. We will offer full day nursery education with the option of wraparound care. Our school wraparound care is Breakfast club from 7.45 – 8.45am and after school club (Honey Bees club) from 3.15 – 5.45pm. Our nursery class will be led by highly experienced staff, the current pre-school team will join our main school team when pre-school closes, and the Nursery and Reception will be overseen by our EYFS leader, Mrs Noden.

Hodnet Pre-School Playgroup is due to close in July 2026. To ensure continued Early Years provision for our community, our school based, teacher led nursery class will open from September 2026. Hodnet Pre-School Playgroup, a privately run Community Led Pre-School setting is currently located on our school site. We work very closely and collaboratively together, although we are entirely separate entities. At transition time, the pre-school children come into Reception class for story time and for their lunch on a weekly basis. Mrs Noden our Reception class teacher and EYFS Lead is currently the Chairperson of Hodnet Pre-School.
