Places available at the amazing Attenborough Church Pre-School , based at Attenborough Village Hall, with our wonderful outside space for the children to use everyday! 😀

We'd love to share some of our parent testimonials...

"We couldn’t have chosen a better preschool! Our daughter attended many years ago and now our son attends, he has grown so much in confidence, made wonderful friendships, and looks forward to going every day. We are incredibly grateful for everything this preschool has done for our family and would recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, nurturing, and inspiring place for their little one. Thank you for giving our children the very best start to their learning journey!" (Kymberley)

"An incredible preschool with huge outdoor space and the most wonderful, caring staff members. My child has spent 2 years here. He runs in every day and often isn't ready to leave. They do so many different activities and the children are so happy there.
There are no "extra/hidden" costs - my childcare bill is a fraction of the cost of anywhere else. And they offer holiday clubs sessions to help through the holidays" (Tre)

"To all the staff, thank you for everything you have done for me and my family over the years. From my eldest starting here, you were amazing with her, and now my youngest child just loves you all too. This pre-school will always hold a special place in my heart. You are all just incredible and we will miss you very much" (Shannon)

"Thank you for the amazing year you have given our daughter. We have seen her grow in confidence, curiosity and resilience in the environment you have created and know she will thrive moving into her next phase because of it. We are so grateful for all the love, care and dedication you have given to both of our children"(Matt and Katy)

"Our daughter has attended this preschool for two years, and we could not be happier. It’s an amazing preschool. The absolute highlight is the massive, beautiful outdoor area, it is full of fun things for the children to do. She gets to run, explore, and get her hands dirty every single day. The staff are incredibly caring and create a safe space for the children. Our daughter has thrived here over the last two years. We highly recommend Attenborough Pre School to any parent" (Emma)

As we celebrate Volunteers’ Week, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the amazing volunteers who give their time, energy, and kindness to support our village hall.

The efforts of our volunteers, whether it’s setting up events, making tea, welcoming guests, cleaning, organising the safe running of the hall, or just simply being a friendly face, are what keep the hall at the heart of the community.

Volunteers don’t just help run a building, they help create a place where people come together, connect, are safe and feel they belong.

The hall wouldn’t be the same without the dedication of the volunteers.

Thank you for making a huge difference, quietly, consistently, and so generously.

If you're interested in joining us, please email [email protected]

Happy 65th Birthday to the wonderful Attenborough Church Pre-School

So many local families will have such fond memories of little ones taking their very first steps into their school journey here, this is a special place being such a cherished part of their early years.

It’s amazing to think of all the laughter, friendships, and milestones that have filled the hall over the decades.

If you’re able, do pop along between 4–5.30pm today (Tuesday 12th May) to join the celebrations. It would be lovely to come together, share stories, and reflect on all those happy memories ❤️

Today at Attenborough Village Hall, Attenborough Village we would like to wish Sir David Attenborough a very happy 100th birthday. David used to play very locally to here, pond dipping with his father, a lecturer at Leicester University when he was younger and it was where he reportedly developed his love of nature , aren't we lucky to have such a wonderful human being in the world 🌎.

Attenborough Nature Reserve are planning lots of events to celebrate their anniversary and his birthday this weekend, so pop a long if you have time 😊.

And for those in and around the village St Mary's Church Attenborough bellringers will be ringing out a special tribute 🔔 to Sir David this evening 🙂.

🌟 Volunteers Needed 🌟

Attenborough Village Hall has always been managed by a committed group of volunteers to ensure that it remains the outstanding community space it is today.

Our village hall is at the heart of the community, and we’re looking for new volunteers to join our committee and help keep it thriving.

We’re a friendly group who meet periodically to help organise events, manage the hall, and ensure it continues to be a welcoming space for everyone.

You don’t need any special experience, just enthusiasm, a bit of time, and a willingness to get involved in community life.

If you’re interested in helping out or would like to find out more, please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you!
