Tavistock & Summerhill Preparatory School
Summerhill Lane, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH16 1RP
Nursery Department

Our aim is to provide a safe, stimulating and happy environment where the well established and dedicated staff lead children through their first steps away from home through a range of play and structured experiences.

Each child will enter nursery with a range of experiences and abilities and an understanding of the world unique to themselves. We cater for their individual needs and broaden their experiences. Each child will feel valued and respected in nursery and will learn to interact with others in a socially acceptable and caring way.

We encourage self-confidence and high self-esteem. Children learn through play. It stimulates exploration and discovery, and facilitates the development of skills and concepts. It extends language and communication, and provides opportunities to develop pre-reading and numeracy skills. It stimulates imagination and encourages children to discriminate, to concentrate and persevere, and to solve problems.
