'Happy & Caring Together'
Carreghofa Owlets is a high quality Pre school setting run by highly qualified and experienced staff where you can access your child’s entitlement to 10 hours FREE education, along with an additional 20 FREE childcare hours, for parents who are eligible. Children can start at the setting once they turn 3 years old, with funding commencing the term after they have turned 3. This gives the children an opportunity to grow in confidence and develop the necessary skills for an easy transition into school.
Carreghofa Owlets is a setting in the main part of Carreghofa C.P. school. We promote children’s independence and curiosity for learning. One week we may fly to the moon and the next we are catching escaped lions from the zoo!
We aim to support the children in our care to be:
Positive, Happy,
Confident, Healthy,
Caring, individuals.
If you would like to come and meet the staff and let your child see what fun activities we get up to please contact us on 01691 830396 or email office@carreghofa.powys.sch.uk.
