Igniting curiosity, nurturing futures
Welcome to our Nursery. Little Sparks is a small and friendly setting situated in the heart of Llangattock village, Crickhowell. Where every child's journey begins with discovery, joy, and high-quality learning. We offer a nurturing environment for your little one to thrive, blending indoor education with exciting outdoor adventures.
Learning through exploration
At Little Sparks Pre-School, we believe in hands-on learning and fostering a deep connection with nature. Our dedicated team provides exceptional childcare and education, preparing children for a bright future in a supportive and stimulating setting.
Benefitting from an outstanding outdoor area, our young children can hunt for bugs in Beech Wood, cook mud pies in the mud kitchen and grow vegetables in our garden as well as use all the space afforded to main school such as an outdoor classroom and climbing equipment.
Our unique approach
We are committed to providing an enriching and holistic experience for every child. Our programme is built upon foundations that foster growth, creativity, and well-being, focusing on high-quality learning and outdoor education.
In the moment planning -
Provision in our nursery promises high quality early years education, that benefits from an in the moment planning model. This is an approach to learning where the setting plans a topic spontaneously based on what child/children are interested in. This is delivered by qualified early year’s practitioners, through play-based learning in an environment that stimulates curiosity and enables each child to engage in activities without being directed by an adult. As a result, the early years team provide a stimulating and enlightening curriculum.
