Discover our nursery

We warmly invite you to our discovery days at Bracken Lane Primary Academy nursery. These special events are designed for families to meet our dedicated teachers, explore our vibrant facilities, and experience firsthand the nurturing environment we offer.

With activities ranging from sensory play, imaginative play, music, messy play, story time, outdoor fun, and much more, there’s something for every child to enjoy! Perfect for families with children aged two and three, our discovery days provide the ideal opportunity to see how our teacher-led curriculum and supportive community can provide the perfect start for your child’s educational journey. Come and discover why our nursery is the ideal place for your child to play, learn, and grow with us.
