Welcome to Squirrels Preschool

Squirrels is a thriving pre-school that caters for young children, primarily in the Highwoods and St Johns area of Colchester.

 We offer children the opportunity to learn through play in a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment, helping to prepare them for school and make local friends.

Squirrels is currently open on five days a week during term time.

On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we are open all day and offer a full day option from 9.15am-3.15pm, with children bringing in a packed lunch. Alternatively, children can attend  for either the morning session from 9.15am-11.45am or the afternoon session from 12.45pm-3.15am. 

On a Friday the pre-school is open for an extended morning session from 9.15am-12.15pm. No lunch or afternoon session is available on this day.

Each session has up to 26 children, aged between 2 and 5 years old, who are supervised by at least 5 members of appropriately qualified staff.
