Spirit & Wonder We offer an exceptional Early Years education where we believe unleashing a child’s spirit sparks their wonder of learning. We believe that a happy, relaxed child will learn best. The children’s love of learning is nurtured through play, guided by our experienced teachers, allowing them to blossom and grow. With purposeful play comes freedom, inspiring independence, boosting confidence and generating an interest in learning. Our dedicated team of passionate and qualified staff put the children at the core of school life. The children’s relationships with teachers and peers is crucial to their development and we know that immersing young children in a language-rich environment accelerates reading, communication and social skills. Our expansive, leafy green campus enables the children to run and play freely; they relish learning outdoors every day. We work closely with our families to deliver the best possible personal and academic outcomes for the children, together.
Joining Nursery & Reception Places fill quickly at the Junior School & Nursery so early registration is recommended to start your child’s journey at Churcher’s College. We welcome children into the Nursery from their third birthday. Progression from Nursery to Reception is based on a child’s development and school readiness. Please get in touch if you are interested in joining Churcher’s College from Reception as places are limited and in high demand. Whether joining at Nursery or Reception, we will invite your child to an observed taster session and settling-in sessions to ensure you and your child feel comfortable and familiar with us before starting.
