Nursery Information

Our nursery provides an excellent start to a child's education.  Our nursery offers a caring environment where children are encouraged to develop physically, academically and socially.

Nursery is open 8.30am until 3pm during term time.

Children can join our FS1/Nursery provision after their 3rd birthday:
