SEnine Pre School Magic A
new pre school named Crafty Wizards Pre-School will open on
September 5th in SE9. The owner is an enthusiastic Early Years qualifi ed teacher, Matthew Byrne.
Born in Greenwich
and raised in Eltham, Matthew Byrne has worked as an Early Years Qualifi ed teacher in both the Greenwich and Bromley areas. Matthew has helped with the local 1st Royal Eltham Cub Scouts since the age of 16 and was a Camp Counsellor for Camp America in Boston, Massachusetts.
Matthew decided to embark on the daunting road of starting up his own Pre-School for children from 2 years old because he wanted to give children a greater chances in their Early Years by off ering stimulating, well planned creative activities, 100% qualifi ed teachers and practitioners, off ering both male and female role models. The childcare and early years workforce is overwhelmingly female, with only

between 1 and 2 per cent of staff being male (Department for Children, Schools and Families 2008). Crafty Wizard off ers both male and female role models as teachers, carers and authority fi gures.
To off er children greater chances in life in the Early Years Matthew aims to bring more art, craft and creativity into the Early Years Foundation Stage, hence the name ‘Crafty’ Wizards. Our
focus is not just art, it is about thinking and problem solving. We use creativity to encourage and inspire children to develop in all six areas of learning. Creativity in role play can encourage talking and listening skills as children begin to link sounds to letters. Creativity can motivate and expand a child’s imagination, develop fi ne and gross

Although Matthew has good experience of working with children, starting up his own Pre-School has been a steep learning process. From starting up his own Limited Company, creating his own website, writing a business plan, setting up a business account, managing accounts to being approved by Ofsted.
