Our Nursery

Your child’s first experiences of school can shape their entire education and life beyond. It’s a huge responsibility – but while we take it incredibly seriously, we never let that get in the way of the children’s enjoyment!

Every day in Nursery is different, full of exciting new challenges, games and directed activities. Our Nursery offers a stimulating and vibrant environment where children learn primarily through play. Daily activities include specialist-taught Music, Movement, Library Time, ICT, French, Dance and Cooking as well as a traditional introduction to phonics and number work. We also enjoy getting our hands dirty and children benefit from a host of wonderful art activities, helping them to learn and explore new information with their senses.

Our Nursery children are truly part of the prep school community and take part in many joint events with other Year groups, such as the Easter Bonnet parade, Founder’s Day and school plays. As a result, the children slowly get used to the school environment and transition more readily into Reception the following year.
