Our principal aim is to provide a safe and secure environment where children can develop social skills and access the education they need in preparation for the start of school life.
The preschool operates from a purpose built building in Buckshaw Village, close to the heart of Chorley. It contains four large open plan rooms that enable the children to play in complete comfort and safety, cared for by staff who know each child well.
