Learning and development is a natural part of everyday life at Smarties...........

Smarties is a Pre-School and Playgroup caterine for children aged from their second birthday to the term after their fifth birthday. Children attend from the local community of Meols and surrounding areas. We operate from within St Andrew's Church and although Smarties is a seperate enterprise, we may raise funds for the church.

Our aim is to ensure your child’s

pre-school education  is stimulating and nurturing and we pride ourselves as being - 'The fun place to learn'!

At Smarties our children don’t differentiate between work and play because learning is a seamless process.

We offer an environment which is safe, stimulating and promotes social interaction between children and adults.

We also want you to feel involved as parents and welcome your input.
