About us

Learn, play and grow…

 ‘…Children are happy and demonstrate close relationships with staff. They rush over and embrace them with frequent hugs and cuddles. Toddlers snuggle with staff to share books and listen to songs. Staff treat all children with the utmost care and respect…’ OFSTED 2024

Imagine a place where exciting things happen. That’s what Teddies is all about! A pre-school where children can freeflow between structured and engaging activities, both indoors and out, and learn through play. 

Our setting offers your child the opportunity to grow, develop and meet new friends. Our varying learning themes and creativity ensures every day is exciting and unique and encourages your child to learn at their own pace.

We pride ourselves on our long standing success from inception as a small village playgroup to our current regulated pre-school status. Thorpe End Pre School (Teddies) has been established since 1993 and continues to go from to strength to strength!

With a catchment area of local surrounding villages such as Thorpe End, Dussindale and Little Plumstead, we have Teddies coming from far and wide!
