About

We are a lively, flourishing Local Authority Nursery School staffed by qualified Nursery Teachers, Nursery Nurses and support Staff all of whom have extensive experience of working with young children.

The School has 4 classes with mixed age children in each room. There is at least 1 qualified Teacher and Nursery Nurse in each class. We offer both full time and part time places.

Part time morning children come from 9.00 – 11.30
Part time afternoon children come from 12.30 – 3.00
Full time children come from 9.00 – 3.00

Most children will be offered a part time place initially. Full time places are allocated according to the LA Nursery Admissions Policy. We also offer breakfast club and after school care at a reasonable cost. For those families who do not qualify for full time places we can offer a sessional ‘buy back’ system which is very popular.
