At St Peter Chanel Nursery & Pre-School we strive to create a warm and stimulating environment where learning is fun. We engage in activities that promote and extend children’s curiosity and awareness of their world.
Our primary focus is learning through play and exploration. We encourage children to grow in confidence, self-esteem and independence.
We treat each child as an individual who has needs that should be met in an atmosphere that celebrates diversity. We will nurture your child’s social and emotional skills to develop and achieve their full potential.
