After visiting several nurseries for our then, 9 month old son we chose Bank Hall Kindergarten. It was the setting that we felt would enhance our sons upbringing and incorporate our family values the most. All of the staff have been so accommodating and lovely over the past 4 years and made my sons early years fun, educational and above all a safe family environment. Any worries or concerns about sending our son to nursery went away as soon as we saw how settled and happy he was and this is down to the wonderful, nurturing environment at Bank Hall Kindergarten. We are so happy that our second child will be starting in September.

My daughter loves nursery and has been attending since she was 11 months old. We had a great settling in period, so from day one she was happy and we were happy. I couldn't fault Bank Hall, the staff are all friendly and welcoming. They keep you up to date with everything they do, even inviting you to events on the days your child doesn't attend. We as parents are so happy we chose Bank Hall Kindergarten and couldn't recommend them enough.

A fantastic nursery/ pre school, which has helped our daughter develop confidence, independence and form relationships through fun and enjoyable experiences. There is a great sense of genuine adoration for the children and the staff have shown excellent knowledge, whilst keeping a relaxed and welcoming feel for the children. We look forward to our son starting next year!

Our son has attended Bank Hall Kindergarten from a baby. The staff are all very warm and caring, making me feel at ease leaving him in the morning. The outside area is a great asset. It's a lovely setting for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers.

Since starting at Bank Hall my daughter has come on so much. The staff are engaging with each and every child.  What I like most is the personal level of care I feel they give the children. Not one day has my child said she doesn't want to attend. Each and every one of her needs is met.

The inspiring management and exceptionally well-qualified staff team are committed to making continuous improvements. Their passion, energy and strong desire to achieve excellence and their high expectations of children supports the exceptional teaching and the high-quality of service they provide.

All children make exceptional progress, including being well prepared for school.

Excellent partnerships with parents and other professionals enable the highly skilled staff to meet all children's individual needs exceptionally well and consistently raise outcomes for children.

Parents are highly appreciative of the high-quality care and learning experiences their children receive and feel fully involved in their children's learning.

Staff are extremely caring and show great affection to all children. This helps all children to form strong, secure attachments and supports their learning and emotional development exceptionally well.

Staff contribute to internal audits and they actively seek the views of others, including parents, children and other early years professionals. Staff passionately strive to identify areas where they can further enhance their service.

Children's behaviour is exemplary. They are extraordinarily confident, kind and polite and show consideration towards others. Children's happiness and laughter permeates throughout the nursery provision and especially in the exceptional natural outdoor environment.

The quality of teaching is inspirational. Staff take every opportunity to guide, explain and demonstrate to help children to build on what they already know and can do. Their passion and highly enthusiastic approach inspires children to explore, experiment, take part in activities and achieve.

Staff are excellent role models and help children to understand what is expected of them. For example, before going on their walk to the woodland, staff ask children what they need to be mindful of outside. This is continued in the woodland as children recognise how to keep themselves safe and how to take care of the natural habitat. Children enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise each day in the majestic gardens.
