EYFS Tours

We run regular tours for parents to view our Early years provision. This will give you an opportunity to meet staff, see the provision in action and ask any questions you may have.  To book a tour, please email us at office@wainscottschool.org.uk or call us on 01634 332551. If there is a lot of interest over a short period of time, we may offer group tours.
