Summary

Plumstead Manor Nursery

Plumstead Manor Nursery provides students with a rich and diverse learning environment.

Their team work to support the development and wellbeing of all the children with them, nurturing their growth and encouraging them to learn and create each passing day. Children from the ages of 2 and 5 strengthen their independence with them as they learn about the world and prepare for their next stage of learning, including moving onto primary school.
They desire to build a strong open relationship with children and parents through an open door policy. This they feel provides us with a happy and safe learning environment where children and adults can thrive. Using inside and outside play, they encourage children to explore and learn at a pace they are happy with and provide surroundings they feel comfortable in.
