We are committed to creating a strong link between school and home. We believe that a collaborative partnership with parents and guardians is essential for the holistic development of each child. Here’s how we build this connection:

Regular Communication: We keep parents informed about their child's progress and any upcoming events or activities through newsletters, emails, and parent meetings.

Family Involvement: We host various events and activities that invite families to participate, creating opportunities for you to be actively involved in your child's education.

Feedback and Support: We value your feedback and are always here to support you with any concerns or questions you may have.

At Balnamill Little Learners, we are more than just a pre-school; we are a community. Our goal is to create a nurturing environment where children feel valued and families feel connected.
