Horley Nursery

At Fennies Horley, Albert Road, our curriculum is designed to do more than educate — it inspires. Led by an expert team, we focus on nurturing a lifelong love for learning by engaging young minds through diverse experiences in STEM, Art, and PE. Our approach is centred on each child’s interests and abilities, challenging them to reach new heights while building confidence.

Fennies Horley, Albert Road brings together our curriculum and pedagogical approach with our Fennies Inspire enhancements. We have a team of specialist educators who lead these sessions to enrich the experiences we create for children, embedding both the EYFS Statutory Framework and supported by the Birth to 5 Matters Guidance. It goes without saying how beneficial it is to have this incredible team working alongside, upskilling, and inspiring our children and Early Years Educators. Our Inspire enhancements are carefully designed not only to promote language skills but also to foster creativity and instil key life skills, including problem-solving and emotional intelligence. These experiences are key to closing achievement gaps and ensuring that all children have an equal chance to succeed in school and later life.

While we don’t have formal partnerships with particular prep schools, we are dedicated to supporting your child in securing a place at the school of your choice. Our goal is to ensure every child feels happy and confident as they transition to their next educational step! To help with this, we offer a comprehensive school readiness program.

Yes! We have an amazing garden at Fennies Horley, Albert Road, that spans across the whole nursery, giving every room free-flow access, enabling children to seamlessly transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. We place great value on the advantages of outdoor learning. It provides a canvas for their imaginations to soar, nurtures their mental well-being by offering a refreshing escape, channels their boundless energy into active play, and plays a pivotal role in their physical development.

Our baby room at Fennies Horley, Albert Road has a sensory experience for the children to enjoy. Our sensory environments are designed to be age-appropriate, immersing children in a setting that sparks their natural curiosity and fosters exploration of movement and communication.

As much as the room may appear overly spacious, it allows for the furniture and soft dividers to be used to create dedicated, separate areas, maintaining a secure environment. All furniture used at Fennies Horley, Albert Road is tailored to the developmental needs of each age group. By creating these separate areas, the team can conduct activities in smaller groups to allow them to use the space effectively. Baby rooms strictly operate with a ratio of 1:3 and each child has a key person, ensuring that all children are provided with adequate levels of attention that they require to remain safe and also continue their development through Early Years.

Fennies Horley, Albert Road is committed to creating an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity. We incorporate multicultural education into our curriculum, helping children understand and appreciate different cultures and perspectives. Our team is trained to recognise and support individual needs, ensuring that every child feels valued and included. “A child’s nursery helps shape their experiences and builds on how they view the world around them. A setting that incorporates equality, diversity, and inclusion can benefit children’s social and emotional development as well as a cultural appreciation of others. We are committed to ensuring our practice is inclusive and diverse. Celebrating diversity is especially important as it introduces cultures and customs that children may not have been exposed to yet.” - Director of Early Years, Rageena Tahir.

Our founding family is actively involved in daily operations, ensuring a high level of commitment, responsibility, and accountability across our nurseries. This dedication is reflected in everything we do, from our curriculum to our supportive teams, helping every child thrive and preparing them for school.
