Our Nursery

Welcome to Saxon Nursery

New from September 2024 our Shepperton based nursery is an integral part of the wider Saxon family, working alongside our Reception year group and supporting children in taking their first steps towards being school-ready.

Taking children from 2 years old we offer a wealth of opportunities to learn as they play whilst following the Early Years Foundation Stage framework in an engaging, creative, friendly and encouraging environment. 

Nursery Open Sessions

We are holding Stay & Play and Open Sessions for prospective families who are looking for a Nursery space in January or April 2025.  There will be one Saturday Stay & Play session where children can come along with their families and explore our wonderful environment.   Every Thursday, between now and Christmas, families can come along and see the Nursery in action from 9:30-10:00am in a very small group.  All the booking information can be found below.

Our Provision

Our Nursery children follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. You can read about this by following this link: https://www.gov.uk/early-years-foundation-stage. This child-led approach allows for 'teaching alongside' as well as direct adult-led activities, such as learning to count, sounds and letters. Children follow the Little Wandle phonics programme.

Our Facilities

Our Nursery occupies a purpose-built space within our school site.

There are a range of ways to stimulate learning and exploration through the outdoors. We seek to develop children's Mathematics and Language skills through this space as much as possible.
