Our Approach


At Greenways we support the Curiosity Approach and we believe instead of directing children, the curiosity approach is based on child-led learning. Children make their own choices, and work things out for themselves which leads to enhanced confidence, critical thinking, and problem solving skills.


Our approach draws ideas from other philosophies of early education including Reggio Emilia, Montessori, Pikler, and Steiner. It aims to create children who are ‘thinkers and doers’ instead of passive learners who simply follow the direction of an adult.


By creating active learners, we find the children are more engaged in their environment and have a lot more fun. They are in charge of their own development and choose activities which play to their own interests.

What makes Greenways
Pre-school so special?

  • An inviting, homely and fun environment.
  • A carefully planned Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum leading towards nationally approved Early Learning goals 
  • Individual care and attention which is made possible by the high ratio of staff to children 
  • Qualified and experienced staff 
  • Opportunities for the children to develop independence and self-confidence, make new friends and explore new horizons 
  • Opportunities for you and your family to be directly involved in the activities of the Preschool and in your child’s progress

“A lovely welcoming pre-school. My daughter loves the activities she does here. From walks to Farnham park, paddling in the streams and bug hunting, to junk box making and biscuit making. It’s just a wonderful charming local nursery where she is very happy and can’t wait to go and “play with her friends””

H. Norris

“Greenways is a lovely small nursery which my son enjoys attending. He is quite shy and can be nervous in meeting other children but the staff are lovely, warm and friendly so he has settled in really easily and he has grown in confidence since starting. I would highly recommend.”

V. McCabe

“Greenways has been such a lovely setting for both of my daughter’s to attend. It is a small setting with a great staff / child ratio. The staff truly care and are passionate about looking after the children in their care. I had my worries with my youngest settling in but the staff there were amazing at making this so much easier and stress free than I could have imagined.
I would highly recommend this hidden gem of a pre-school”

WHAT FUNDING IS AVAILABLE?

Sessions are available all year round for children aged 2.5 - 5 years. We accept FEET funded children and Universal funded hours which are offered for 3 years upwards. We are pleased to offer a variety of sessions to children eligible for any funding, subject to availability.


You can usually get Tax-Free Childcare if you (and your partner, if you have one) are:

• in work

• on sick leave or annual leave

• on shared parental, maternity, paternity or adoption leave


You’ll need to expect to earn a certain amount over the next 3 months. This is at least the National Minimum Wage or Living Wage for 16 hours a week on average. If you get Tax-Free Childcare, you’ll set up an online childcare account for your child.



For every £8 you pay into this account, the government will pay in £2 to use to pay your provider. You can get Tax-Free Childcare at the same time as 30 hours free childcare if you’re eligible for both. Find out if you are able to claim here.
