Why choose Green Acres?

Our nurturing baby room

Nurturing natural curiosity

We believe the best classroom is often the great outdoors. Through supervised freedom in our outdoor spaces, gardening projects, and sensory play, we harness your child's innate sense of wonder, fostering critical thinking skills and a lifelong appreciation for the environment.

Our preschool learning environment

A foundation for lifelong learning

Our educational approach focuses on building key foundational skills – language development, problem-solving, and emotional literacy – that equip children not just for school, but for life. Our play-based framework allows children to lead their own discovery, turning every activity into a meaningful step toward confidence and intellectual growth.

Creative play and role play area

Experienced hands, heartfelt care

Our practitioners are the heart of Green Acres, carefully chosen for their extensive experience and genuine passion for early years education. We provide a ratio of staff to children that ensures personalised attention and the warm, nurturing care that makes every child feel safe, understood, and valued, just like family.
