Nursery

At Gonville Academy, we offer a secure and creative learning environment through our 52-place Nursery.

If your child is 3 years old and your application to your Nursery is successful, they are eligible for 15 hours of free learning per week. These learning sessions are divided into morning sessions (8:45-11:45am) and afternoon sessions (12:15-3:15pm), with each child being assigned to either the morning or afternoon Nursery.

Our Nursery is committed to implementing the best practices in early childhood education, fostering positive attitudes towards school and its routines.

Children have access to a wide range of activities, both indoors and outdoors, including a mix of teacher-guided and child-initiated activities.

With the Nursery, our primary focus is on the three Prime Areas of development: Personal, Social and Emotional Development; Physical Development; and Communication and Language. These Prime Areas are fundamental for your child’s overall well-being and future educational progress.
