Welcome to Little Sparrows - an Early Years Nursery with Outdoor Learning and a Montessori Dimension.

For over 30 years, we have been nurturing children in helping them to become creative, resilient and happy little learners.

At Little Sparrows we do things a little differently. We encourage outdoor learning as much as possible with a Montessori attitude. We treat our learners as competent individuals which builds on their self-esteem, confidence and physical and mental well-being.

 

We want to build a generation of children who love to learn. Learning is so much more than learning set skills and passing tests – it is about developing a positive attitude towards learning and a passion and a curiosity for the world!

 

We nurture the process of learning and encourage our learners to keep trying when things get challenging, to question why things happen and to bounce back when things do not quite go to plan.

 

Our little learners are encouraged to think critically, to create without restrictions and to learn at their own pace. We give the children the freedom and the space to investigate, make mistakes and to take risks without the pressure of failing.
