Acorns Pre-School
Acorns is our Pre-School. We are extremely fortunate to have our own Pre-School on site here at Selborne. Our children from 2 years upwards, learn and play in partnership with our Reception and Year 1 children in Hedgehogs Class across 2 classrooms and a large outdoor learning environment.
Ofsted complimented the school by saying, "Pupils thrive at this school. Right from the start of pre-school they are known as individuals by staff."
Their Class Teacher is Mrs Rhianwen Murphy
Their Learning Support Assistants are Mrs Charlotte Brown and Mrs Christine Young.
