  • Who we are

    Intimate, small and nurturing setting developing capable learners and communicators

    Our smaller size really is our most unique feature and benefit; enabling our nursery team to work very closely with children and families in order to meet their individual needs.

    Apricot Nursery and Pre-school are set across two sites, ensuring that we are able to give children a truly unique and special nursery experience. Children start their journey at our Apricot Nursery and finish here at our Apricot Pre-school. We are just a short walk away from the nursery and offer the same home from home experience. Visit our Nursery page here.

    The Pre-school consists of three base rooms, each benefiting from having their own safe and enclosed, age appropriate outside play area. This provides all of our children with free flow access to explore the outside play area whenever they want.
