Lewin Pre-School
Yesterday I had the pleasure of accompanying Keith Hill, Labour MP for Streatham, to the 35th anniversary celebrations of Lewin Baptist Church’s Pre-School. Some 50 children between the ages of 2 and 5 years old are registered with the school, with around 25 children attending in term time between 9.15 and 11.45am in the church hall and/or at the afternoon session between 12.30 and 3pm.
The school was established by a group of mothers from the church in 1973 and is now predominantly funded through voluntary donations. It offers a range of stimulating activities from sand play, dressing up, painting and crafts, to construction toys, play doh, puzzles and cookery within a caring environment, to the children during those all important formative years in their development. The school aims to assist the children in their social, physical, emotional and intellectual development in accordance with the Pre-School curriculum and to prepare them for school with confidence – Keith and I were able to see for ourselves that that is just what the school has achieved and its tremendous contribution to the local community. Happy Anniversary Lewin Pre-School! For further information on the Pre-School, click here: Lewin Pre-School.
