- Notes
Choosing a nursery for your child is a huge decision, not one to be made lightly. Let us tell you a little bit about why we're special.
Firstly and most importantly, we care. All of our staff work hard on their relationships with your child, it's why your child will love their nursery and why in
turn that's easy for you - relationships are key.Secondly, our building is great! Our purpose built nursery was designed with your child in mind, we spent over £500,000 making sure that it has everything they could ask for to ensure that they can learn, love and live.
Finally, our grounds. We're constantly developing our site but your child will have access to an amazing outdoor space for themselves with: A huge sandpit,
traditional Mongolian yurt, plenty of hills and bumpy challenging terrain, dedicated water play area, full size all weather sports pitch, our forest school with over 100 trees from all over the world, our allotments, fire pit area, library and our amazing 'Big School'.
