Early years: play with purpose
Creche, Nursery and Reception in our garden wing. Children learn to listen, share, count and love books, mostly without noticing they are learning.

The details that matter
Phonics from Nursery 2
A short, playful phonics session every morning so children start Year 1 reading simple books.
A garden classroom
Raised beds, a mud kitchen and a shaded sand area. Children plant, measure and watch things grow.
Settling in gently
A two-week settling plan, starting with short mornings, so every child feels safe.
Care and safety
A nurse on campus, fenced garden, signed collection and CCTV at the early years gate.
