THE NURSERY AND PRE-SCHOOL DIFFERENCE
ISI Report, 2023
Welcome
Our Nursery and Pre-School welcomes children into a warm and inclusive environment that always puts their well-being first.
Set in the extensive grounds of our Prep School in the heart of Southsea, Portsmouth, our Pre-School is based in a light and modern building with access to a large wooded garden, a real oasis in an inner city environment, offering plenty of space for play and exploration.
Our Nursery and Pre-School teachers are highly qualified and get to know and understand each of the children in their care. The school offers an outstanding start for girls from the term of their third birthday (rising 3) until they join the Reception Class.
You are warmly invited to visit us, meet Early Years teaching staff, and find out more about the opportunities available. Do Request a Prospectus and book a personal tour of the school. We are very much looking forward to meeting you and your daughter.
