Lots of full-length windows allow children to enjoy the setting fully, while vaulted ceilings in all the rooms and soothing, natural colours and materials create a clean, bright and airy environment for both children and staff.
We have a 9.3 out of 10 rating on Day Nurseries with most recent reviews saying things like “Our children love going to Oaktree and we've been really happy with the care they receive there. They particularly enjoy the new forest school sessions, and French lessons in the pre-school class” and “My son has been attending Oak Tree since he was around 18 months old, he's now 4 and going to school this year and honestly if I could keep him at Oak Tree for longer I would!”.
