We currently admit children into Ashleigh Nursery the September after their 3rd birthday for one academic year. The Nursery has its own entrance, two welcoming classrooms, an enclosed, secure playground, and a large open grass play area. The Nursery is well resourced with a wide range of play equipment, both indoors and out.
The children enjoy exploring and investigating in the large sand pit and getting messy in our digging area, amongst many other things! We have beautiful, established trees which the children watch with interest as they change across the seasons.
