Description
The Nursery was built in 1942 as a day nursery for the children of mothers working for the war effort. It was open long hours and accepted babies and children under five. There was a Matron, a Sister and a team of Nursery Nurses. In 1946 it became a nursery school under the control of the Education Authority. Over the years the long hours have been reduced and are now in line with Primary Schools. In 2022, we celebrated our 80th Anniversary; it was a very special year indeed.
The school is situated in the south-west of Baldock. It is a single storey building set in an acre and a half of beautiful grounds, which have been designated as an Educational Nature Reserve, and where the children can really benefit from the environment.
We offer part time (15 hour) and full-time (30 hour) places, which are allocated in accordance with our Admissions Policy. The children are admitted the term after they turn three. The Nursery offers extended provision between the hours of 8am-5pm (4pm on a Friday).
