Nursery

The Ardingly Farmhouse Nursery is part of the Pre-Prep School at Ardingly College.

A converted pigsty, our cosy Nursery has a large, private all-weather garden. The Nursery is part of the Pre-Prep School and shares their beautiful outdoor space and indoor hall and facilities. Being part of the College, the Pre-Prep and Nursery have access to all campus facilities.

At Ardingly College Nursery, we are passionate about supporting every child to grow in a safe, stimulating environment that enables them to develop into a happy and confident individual. We cherish each child’s individuality and support them to grow in confidence and skill, secure in our beautiful Nursery that provides plenty of opportunities for learning, both indoors and outside. Children learn to engage with nature either in our secure Nursery garden or by exploring the extensive College grounds to pick blackberries, collect conkers or just enjoy the pleasure of a walk in the woods.
