Perranporth Pre-School is a registered charity, originally opened in 2003, and is managed by voluntary Trustees whose members comprise of parents of children attending the group or skilled people who can help run the charity. We share our building with Perranporth Family Help Hub, but have our own self-contained area and are located next to Perranporth Community Primary School.
We operate in one large open plan room, with a separate sensory room, and have access to two fully enclosed outside play areas, one of which holds our Forest School. We also offer Music, and Ballet lessons all included in our daily rate! Our Pre-School is accessible to wheelchair users and those with physical disabilities. We welcome children with additional needs and those who speak English as an additional language.
We currently employ 10 members of staff all of whom hold appropriate early years qualifications, and support your children in their learning helping them to thrive whilst in our care.
We are open from 8am-4pm, Monday to Friday during term time, with sessions from 8:45am-11:45am or a full day 8:45am-3pm. We also offer a Breakfast Club, from 8am-8:45am and an After Pre-School Club from 3pm-4pm.
We are also very proud to share that we have been awarded with the Dingley’s Promise ‘Mark of Achievement’. This means so much to our setting and staff who have all worked very hard to achieve this!
If you are a parent who would like to help, either by joining the Trustees or by volunteering at some of our fundraising events, then please get in touch via our Contact us page.

Week Commencing 21st September 2026
Hello,
Hope you all have had a great weekend, could you all please make sure you are here on time when starting pre-school, and just a reminder for all containers to be plastic in lunch boxes.
Every week we have a book of the week, Jolly phonics song and Makaton sign of the week which we teach the children alongside all of their other independent learning. For more information please click on the links under each category.
Our book of the week is, My shadow is pink.
My Shadow Is Pink is a beautifully written rhyming story that touches on the subjects of gender identity, self acceptance, equality and diversity. Inspired by the author’s own little boy, the main character likes princesses, fairies and things "not for boys." He soon learns (through the support of his dad) that everyone has a shadow that they sometimes feel they need to hide.This is an important book for a new generation of children (and adults alike) which exemplifies the concepts of unconditional love, respect and positive parenting.
Our Makaton sign of the week is family
