The Nursery

Welcome to Little Knellies

Where our youngest girls begin their school learning adventure!

At Little Knellies, we offer a warm, nurturing environment designed especially for girls. A place where their curiosity is encouraged, their confidence is nurtured, and their individuality is celebrated from the very beginning.

Carefully combining the freedom to explore with planned learning opportunities, including access to specialist teachers and the exceptional facilities within Knell House and at The Abbey Junior and Senior School, the foundations are built for each girl to become a life long learner who loves learning. Our bespoke approach is underpinned by the work of theorists such as Reggio Emilia, Maria Montessori and Rudolf Steiner and every girl is known and valued, with learning tailored to their interests and passions and every day filled with joy and wonder.  

Join us and discover a fresh approach to high quality early years education, one that reflects the power of girls-only learning and the possibilities of an independent school journey.

The Nursery provides a warm and friendly introduction to school, where the girls take their first steps on the path of learning. We encourage independence, from daily routines to self-management of their choices in their work.
