Nursery
Every day is filled with opportunities to learn through play, imagination and discovery. Our caring team creates a calm, welcoming atmosphere where children feel valued, listened to and encouraged to express themselves.
Pre-school and nursery
Our nursery provides a nurturing and joyful environment where children aged 3–4 years can begin their journey as confident, curious learners. In our specially designed nursery space, children feel safe, supported and excited to explore the world around them.
The nursery has its own dedicated space and entrance. Children have their dedicated playground, which they share with pre-schoolers only.
Our daily structure and routines strike a balance between focused, adult-led sessions and extended periods of child-led exploration.

We encourage children to wear the Dollis polo shirt and jumper, in order to foster a sense of belonging and pride, and facilitate the transition to the school's uniform in the later years.

If you are late to collect your child, please report to the school office where your child will be signed out of school and recorded as a late collection.
If a child has not been collected 15 minutes after the specified collection time, we will follow our Collection, Non-Collection and Missing Child Policy.
