Child-Centred Childcare
We make our days as action-packed as possible and believe that nurseries should not be closed shops. We want our children to know and understand the community they are in, the wonderful cultural experiences they can have in the wider community and the learning they can achieve within the school. All of this is delivered by a fully qualified and caring educational team.

Nurturing Nursery Nurses
Baby room nursery nursers who enjoy advanced baby training from the NDNA outside of their qualifications in early years and paediatric first aid for expertise in pre-2 care

Child-Led learning
Child-led learning in an enabling environment that is replete with resources to stimulate young minds, maximise creativity and autonomy and develop their natural interests and concentration

Cultural Learning
End of month family festivals and community parties to help our children understand that they are part of a community, to build their sense of self and to celebrate what they've learnt

Bilingual Immersion
Bilingual immersion and dedicated sessions in circle time, music, literacy and understanding the world for second language acquisition

Extraordinary Outings
