Hi Sam and Donna,

I couldn’t not send in my own personal email of thanks to you both and the wonderful team that is the AR Pre-school.

—- has absolutely loved her time with you, it has been a joy to watch her grow and thrive with your support and it makes us smile hearing the stories she tells us of what she gets up to every day, I know she will miss you all and the routine she is so accustomed to, the kind faces, the limitless cuddles and endless patience you all give to every child, what a team!

I have loved your sustainable ethos and the important messages that you build into the children’s learning, something we are trying to do at home too. We will definitely be enrolling —– as soon as she is old enough!

Thank you all, and I hope you enjoy your well deserved summer break.


Kind Regards,

Dear Debbie Sam, Donna, And all the amazing staff you have at the pre school.

I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU for all that you have done for —— from when she first started at 2.5years old. —–was once a very shy non talking little girl who struggled to socialise with others @ express herself, however with all your support/guidance and wanting the best for my little girl she is a shining star in my eyes. ——has come on in leaps and bounds and i am so happy with all the progress she has made and its down to you.

I feel sad she is leaving the pre school and all the special people that have helped her so much.

Thank you so much for everything you have really changed her life and given her the best start for her to go on her journey at big school (im crying as i write this)
Take care and thank you

Hi allJust want to send a MASSIVE THANK YOU to all of you for looking after —-, teaching him and helping him go grown and develop. He’s loved his time with you and I’m sure he will miss you, although he will still see you some time. You’ve been wonderful with both of my boys and I’m very grateful. Enjoy your break. Lots of love,  xxx

I cannot believe he is starting school and am in a bit of denial!) so I just wanted to say thank you SO much for everything you have all done for Eddie. Because of you all, he has honestly been happy every single time he has gone to preschool- without fail. You’ve all helped prepare him for school in incredible ways and I can’t believe how confident and sociable he has become- and how much he now knows about everything!! He is very sad to be leaving and I know he thinks the world of everybody at preschool and will remember his time with you all with happiness.Thank you for taking such good care of him and hopefully I’ll be seeing you in a year when it’s ——-  turn to start preschool!Take care,

To Sam Donna and the team,

Thank you for putting on such a lovely event for us all. It was so lovely to see the children sing and be able to share some of their preschool experiences with us.

“To all the amazing Pre School Team! I honestly can’t believe Child D has come to the end of her time at Pre-School. I feel like I have blinked and 18 months has passed. I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your support and guidance you have given to Child D, especially during this crazy year. She has absolutely loved her time at PreSchool and is sad that she’s now a big girl and has to go off to Primary School. You have all been wonderful and I hope you have a lovely summer break. You all deserve it!”

Parent

“We think what you and the team have achieved at the pre school this term has been outstanding. Child C is loving coming in each day and is enjoying all of the activities that she has been doing. I think the children going in through the gate has worked really well and it seems to have helped the slightly anxious children by going in that way too. 
Well done everyone. Many thanks.”

Parent

“I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you for your time, energy and dedication that you have put into Child B and her individual needs over the past 2 years. Every single member of staff put me at ease from day one and I have felt more and more comfortable as time has gone on and both Child B and I have built our own relationships with you all. The safeguarding of the children is paramount but it’s clear to see the thought between finding that balance for the children’s happiness and their safety. I will be very sad to see her leave you in a few weeks time, especially under these circumstances, but appreciate all you have done to prepare her for her next steps as she moves on to primary school.”

Parent

“Although we were nervous about sending Child A back to pre-school post-lockdown, we knew it was the right decision for her as she really so missed attending the setting. The systems in place and the professionalism of the staff have made for a very low stress experience and our daughter has thoroughly enjoyed being back at pre-school. Based on Child A’s happy time here, we have only high praise for the setting and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to any other prospective parents.”

Parent

A huge thank you for an amazing 6 years for our 3 children at your lovely nursery! You’ve looked after them, helped them grow and nurtured them all so much – we can’t thank you & the staff enough.  Our heartfelt thanks to all of your staff!’

Parent

‘Both E and Z have been really happy here. Both have been very well looked after in your care, and brought on in many positive ways, so thank you for making their time at the preschool so much fun.’

Parent

‘What a wonderful story. I can see the effort and commitment in D’s face. I love the teachers enthusiasm, you really do instil belief in D, thank you’

Parent

‘I wanted to say a big thank you for everything you and your wonderful team have done for A. He has loved his time at Anthony Roper. He has come on so well with the love, support and dedication from all of you. Thank you for letting the children be children and learn through their play, which I feel is so important. You are all amazing.’

Parent

Thank you all so much for all your hard work and support in helping my child to become the happy, confident little boy he now is and for making his time at pre-school such a positive experience

Parent

Thank you all for being such a wonderful team and all you have done for my child. She has come so far since starting and a lot of that is thanks to you. Your time, patience and kindness is never unnoticed and always appreciated

Parent

We have watched our child grow into a happy, confident little girl. Through her little problems you have always supported her and us and for that we will always be grateful. Keep doing what you’re doing because you do an amazing job

Parent

Thank you all so much for supporting my child in her first year at nursery. Her confidence has grown throughout the year and she is now more sociable with other children. Thank you for organising the extra special events that make nursery an enjoyable experience. My child has enjoyed going to the woods, cooking, gardening and sports day

Parent

Thank you so much for looking after, caring and teaching my child this year, he has loved being with you and has developed so much. He obviously loves pre-school just like a family which is lovely

Parent

I just wanted to write a quick note to how much I was impressed with your recent request to parents asking to reduce the amount of waste in lunch boxes. It’s so easy and takes very little thought once you are in the swing of it. It often takes a push like this for people to try it before realising all the benefits for themselves. You’re in a position to boast about your green credentials!?

Welcome to the Anthony Roper Pre-School and Kindergarten

“Encouraging children to spread their wings and grow in a fun and stimulating environment through free-flow play indoors and in our unique outside spaces”

The Anthony Roper Pre-School and Kindergarten is a popular village Pre-School located in the grounds of the Anthony Roper Primary School in Eynsford, on the outskirts of Dartford, Kent.

Our aim is to provide our children, aged from 2 to 5 years, with a balanced and inspirational start to their early years education in a happy, safe and nurturing environment. Our professionally trained and qualified staff support the children through each step of their learning, enabling every child to reach their full potential.

At the Anthony Roper Pre-School and Kindergarten we believe that parents and carers have the most influence in a child’s life. We view parents as our partners in the education of their children and invite parents into the Pre-School on a regular basis to help out, join in with an activity such as cooking, or simply to observe their child having fun!

We hope our website provides you with all of the information you need, however there is no better way to decide whether our Pre-School is right for your child than to visit us in person. We look forward to showing you around our beautiful building and introducing you to our wonderful staff and children.
