About our Nursery
Nestled amongst beautiful fields and trees, our nursery offers a peaceful and nurturing space where children can begin their learning journey with confidence and curiosity.
At High Wych Nursery School, we are committed to creating a warm and enriching environment where your child’s early education truly flourishes. Our nursery is a safe and inspiring space, thoughtfully designed to encourage children to explore, discover, and develop their individual interests.
We focus on supporting the development of the whole child through a balanced curriculum that blends play-based learning, creative activities, and structured opportunities. Our passionate team provides carefully planned learning experiences and high-quality interactions—both indoors and outdoors—helping every child to grow in confidence, curiosity, and creativity.
