There is no one more precious than our children. They are the future – and the future for a hopeful world. So our task at Gresham’s Nursery and Pre-Prep is simple. Together we work to create an environment where happy, relaxed, calm, courteous and curious children can flourish and be their best.

Children’s well-being is fundamental to good learning. So first we ensure that your child feels safe and secure and that he/she feels valued and of significance. You will find strengths are celebrated and weaknesses supported. Caring staff and generous pupil-staff ratios ensure that we know your child as an individual.

Curriculum

We believe that happy children are successful learners. In the Pre-Prep children settle quickly into a happy school routine and develop a positive and interactive approach to learning.

Their days are filled with stimulating activities within a school environment which is able to take advantage of all the facilities of the Prep and Senior Schools. As well as developing maths and reading skills, children are exposed to a range of languages which include Mandarin and Italian.

Co-curricular

Our co-curricular activities provide children with a wealth of opportunities to pursue their interests or try something new.

We aim to help children increase their confidence and self-belief while cultivating new abilities which may develop into lifelong skills and interests and which encourage them to take on new challenges.

Pastoral care

At Gresham’s Nursery and Pre-Prep we pride ourselves on providing a happy, secure and nurturing environment for all our children.

The class teachers are responsible for the pastoral care of the children in their class and in the Nursery each child has a Key Worker who oversees the needs of the child and liaises with parents.

School Life

Our Nursery and Pre-Prep provides a broad curriculum and a huge range of after school activities which provide every child with a range of exciting hobbies to try.

We provide wrap around care for children from 8:00am until 5:30pm (5:00pm on a Wednesday).
