Welcome to Nursery

Sunday Times Schools Guide 2025 - Independent Secondary School of the Year North West

The Small Setting with a Big Heart

Nursery is where our youngest children, from two years, begin their journey of discovery and build the foundations for a lifelong adventure of learning. Our Nursery is a warm and welcoming environment where our littlest learners thrive under the care of our inspiring practitioners who nurture the children and work hard to capture their imaginations through imaginative games and play.

We know the first few years in a young child’s life are a truly remarkable time and can make an enormous difference to their growth and development. With this is mind, we provide a caring and dynamic environment which affords children the very best start before they are ready to move onto our Pre Prep setting at 3 years old.

Wellbeing and Lifelong Learning

We provide enabling environments that stimulate, excite and intrigue the children’s curiosity. All these experiences help to shape their individual development and build the foundations for future success, wellbeing and lifelong learning.

Situated within the beautiful grounds of Birkenhead School, we have easy access to wider school facilities.  Regular walks and activities within the School grounds add to the wider experiences of our little ones and help when they come to move through the School.

Our nursery setting features two dedicated areas tailored to different age groups: the Toddler Room, designed for our youngest children aged two to three, and the Rising 3s area, for children aged three until they transition into our Pre-Prep program.

Pre-Prep

When the time comes, the move to Pre-Prep is a natural step for children and play visits, games and activities all support the move so that children are happy, confident and ready for their next adventure.

We warmly invite you to visit our Pre Prep and see what makes us a special place and nurturing environment for your child. We look forward to meeting you and your family.​
