About Us

We are a culturally diverse, inclusive Nursery School and Children’s Centre within the London Borough of Barnet. We pride ourselves on the support we offer all children including those with additional and complex needs. We are judged as outstanding by Ofsted. Our nursery school is led by qualified teachers. We also have a Qualified Forest school leader and a large outdoor learning environment. We offer 15 hours free childcare to all 3/4 year olds and 30 hours free childcare to eligible 3/4 year olds. We also have provision for 2 year olds, offering 15 hours free to those eligible. We have a qualified Forest School leader and a large outdoor space. Our Nursery Schools are places of possibility; living spaces where children and childhood are honoured, their ideas and abilities valued. A place where children and adults are learning from each other. Where children are seen as individuals and achievements are celebrated.

We value free play and open ended learning as opposed to fixed goals and outcomes. Free play is an essential and beneficial right of all children. In our schools of possibilities, adults observe children to understand rather than assess against measurable targets. We observe their innovation, their creativity, their ideas, their intents and feelings. The insight that we gain enables us to discuss, reflect and plan our environment to support and shape future learning.
