Our Vision
At Horden Nursery School we strive to create a happy and friendly environment where all children feel safe, secure and valued. Alongside our experienced and caring team of staff, children are encouraged to follow their own interests and fascinations, developing their thinking and independence in an environment which supports creativity, curiosity and imagination. Children are offered a wide range of exciting experiences and challenges, supporting them to make their own decisions, take risks and understand the world around them.
We strive to build upon each child’s individual home experiences through trusting and supportive relationships, ensuring diversity is celebrated and everyone is valued and included.
