ANNINGTON SUPPORT EARLY YEARS LEARNING AT BRIZE NORTON VILLAGE PRE-SCHOOL

Children at Brize Norton Village Pre-School have received new interactive learning equipment thanks to a generous donation from Annington, who are currently refurbishing homes just under two miles away at Norton Grove in Carterton.

According to research, exposure to a variety of senses positively influences children’s cognitive development. The interactive and educational water tray will offer its 42 pupils hands-on experience to learn and develop their creativity and motor skills as well as exploring their senses.

Jackie Hampson, Manager at Brize Norton Village Pre-School comments: “We are proud to offer a range of hands-on learning experiences for our pupils, which positively contributes to their early childhood development. The children are already having so much fun learning through water play, and this donation will provide endless opportunities for creativity, sensory exploration and social interaction. Thanks to this donation from Annington, we can continue growing our dynamic learning environment.”

Stacy Whitehead, Marketing Manager for Annington, added: “We are proud to support the local community wherever possible, and it is fantastic to see the interactive approach Brize Norton Village Pre-School takes with its learning. Just a short distance away from our homes in Carterton, this pre-school plays a vital role for families, and we hope this donation will be enjoyed for years to come.”

Carterton has a thriving tight-knit community and makes the perfect home for prospective renters wanting to relocate to villages surrounding Oxford, allowing them to have reliable links into the city at a more attractive price point.

Annington has refurbished these homes with energy efficiency in mind, achieving an EPC C rating by incorporating double-glazed windows, thermal rendering and insulated front doors. The homes also feature brand-new kitchens with built-in appliances, contemporary bathrooms and new flooring throughout.

Prices for Annington’s rental homes in Carterton start at £1,400 per calendar month for a two-bedroom home. To find out more, contact the appointed lettings agent Chancellors via 01993 774179, or email Norton.Grove@chancellors.co.uk. To find about more about Norton Grove, visit nortongrove.co.uk.
