ST ANTHONY'S
PRE-SCHOOL
St Anthony's Pre-school has helped parents of Brighton & Hove to care and develop their children for over 30 years. We are proud of our achievements and thrilled with the numbers of returning families year-on-year. We thrive to be a part of the local community, and are proud to see our children develop at the local schools that we feed in Hove, Hangleton and Portslade. We welcome everyone to visit and meet us. We are at St Peter's Community Hall on the corner of Holmes Avenue and Hangleton Road, Hove - next to the windmill. It is big, bright and has lots of lovely outdoor space for the children to play in. Our team members contribute to the caring and nurturing provision that we are well-known for.

What is the difference between a nursery, pre school and Kindergarten?The difference between a nursery, pre-school, and kindergarten largely depends on location and educational approach: Nursery: Typically for children aged 0-3 years, focusing on early development, play, and social interaction in a childcare setting. Pre-school: Usually for children aged 3-5 years, offering a structured early education environment that prepares them for primary school. Kindergarten: Commonly used in the US, Germany, and some other countries, referring to the first formal year of schooling for 4-6-year-olds, bridging the gap between early childhood education and primary school. In the UK, nurseries and pre-schools are more common, while in countries like the US, kindergarten is often the first year of compulsory education. St Anthony's pre-school takes children from 2-5, so we take children from a younger age than most pre-schools.
