At Wilmere Lane our experienced educators teach children using the Early Years Foundation Stage framework in combination with our own Storal approach to curriculum.

Our hybrid approach means that children at Wilmere Lane Nursery School can reach their full potential at their own pace and in their own time.

Mealtimes at Wilmere Lane are a time for children to refuel, be sociable and learn about nutrition.

Healthy snacks and delicious fresh food are cooked every day by our onsite chef using local and seasonal produce when we can. Children experience new flavours and look forward to favourite dishes while older children help in our kitchen.

Welcome to Wilmere Lane Nursery School.

Every day at Wilmere Lane we encourage children to be inquisitive and imaginative in our wonderful learning environment. In doing so, they soon develop a real love of learning and a curious mind. For over 20 years we’ve welcomed, taught and cared for children who go on to spend many happy years imagining, discovering and exploring with us.

Our home from home atmosphere means that during their time with us, your child will immerse themselves in a cosy and comforting environment which produces feelings of contentment, togetherness, positivity and wellbeing.

Our experienced team come with a wealth of early years learning insight. We know that every child is different with their own story to tell, so we make sure that your child learns in a way and at a pace that’s right for them.

We’d love to meet you and your family so do come and visit us.

Their next chapter at 
Wilmere Lane

Our wonderful nursery school at Wilmere Lane offers carefully considered learning spaces for children aged 3 months to 5 years.

Babies

Warm and calming, our baby room offers so many opportunities for this age group to develop and learn through multi-sensory experiences and gentle play. Our trained early years educators will help your baby learn and develop new skills, from standing to walking and talking.

After a busy morning of exploring and learning, there’s time to recharge. We know how important naps are, and make sure that when they need it, children can sleep.

Toddlers

As their story begins to take shape, growing toddlers are given the time and space to be more independent, discover and learn. Children make friends, learn to play alongside each other and become more aware of the world around them. Our experienced educators encourage language development too, starting with simple sounds and building to sentences.

Toddlers follow a general routine with free play sessions, snack time and stimulating activities to ignite their imaginations and deepen their understanding of the world around them. And when tiredness takes over, they can take a rejuvenating nap in our beds or on sleep mats.

Preschool

With growing confidence and ability, we prepare our preschool children for the learning journey ahead with a focus on phonics, numbers, social and technology skills.

Children spend their final years at Wilmere Lane getting ready for primary school with lots of opportunities to make their own choices. We work closely with local schools to make sure their transition to them is a smooth and happy one.

By this time, they have made firm friendships and leave us as independent, curious and confident learners, ready for the next chapter of their own story.
