Welcome to The Little School: Where nature nurtures growing minds

At Little School we bring 34 years of expertise and a team of highly qualified practitioners to provide exceptional care and education for your child during their most formative years. Our mission is to nurture, guide, and inspire each child as they grow, learn, and explore their world.

A Tailored Approach to Learning

Every child is unique, and we embrace this by following their individual interests and adopting a flexible, child-centered approach to education. We draw from the best methodologies, including:

Montessori: Encouraging exploration and discovery through hands-on learning.
Waldorf: Fostering creativity and imagination in a holistic environment.
Reggio Emilia: Viewing the environment as the "third teacher" and emphasizing collaborative learning.

By blending these approaches, we ensure your child receives a balanced and enriching experience tailored to their needs and passions.

Recognition for Excellence

We are proud to announce that in December 2024, The Little School was awarded the Gold Award by the National Day Nurseries Association, recognising our dedication to physical activity, nutrition, and overall well-being.

Beyond the Classroom

Our nursery emphasises a well-rounded education that extends beyond the recognised requirements of the Early Years Foundation stage.. We incorporate:

Forest School Activities: Inspiring a love for nature, exercise and outdoor play.
Music, Drama, and Dance: Building confidence and self-expression through creative arts.

These experiences help children develop essential life skills, confidence, and a sense of wonder that prepares them for future success.
