Our Nursery consists of 'Little Owls' for children aged 2-3 years and 'Wise Owls' for rising 4s. Our caring and inspiring teachers deliver a dynamic and engaging Early Years curriculum that captures a child's imagination and leads them on their journey of discovery and adventure. Nestled in our Secret Garden, it really is the perfect start to your child's education.
Inspiring and engaging classrooms lead out to dedicated outdoor spaces for each Nursery class. There are chickens, mud kitchens, vegetable beds and a bespoke outdoor area, where the children can learn, play and grow through the seasons.
Being part of the Prep School also means the children can enjoy woodland walks and nature trails across our rural site, as well as weekly swimming in our heated pool and sports using our hall, astro and pitches.
Every day, children are busily engaged in a range of activities, including cooking, gardening, art and craft, making music, roleplay and early reading and writing skills. Those children staying on for the afternoon are always in for a real treat with a brilliant programme of afternoon enrichment activities, which include dance, sporty tots, movement and mindfulness, Spanish, and Forest School - all with an exceptional team of specialist teachers.
There is a calm, purposeful air about the Nursery, as children develop skills and a love of learning. We want our children to become confident, happy, independent learners with inquiring minds.
We are very flexible in our Nursery, and can accommodate children for full or half-day sessions, with or without lunch. Our wraparound care offers care for your child from 7.45am to 6pm, 50 weeks of the year.
Before your child starts Little Owls, we invite you to join our Mini Owls Toddler Group. This runs every Tuesday afternoon and is the perfect way to get to know our staff and setting, ask questions and let your littles ones explore! If you'd like to join the sessions, please contact our Registrar.
