Welcome to Cherry Trees Nursery

Executive Head Teacher’s Welcome

I would like to warmly welcome your family to Cherry Trees Nursery School.  Together with Peter Pan Nursery School and Peter Pan Training Partnership, we form Bedford Nursery Schools Federation.  Providing high-quality early years education and care and developing strong partnerships between home and school are at the heart of what we do. We endeavour to work closely with you as parents and carers to involve you with your child’s learning.  Our team of dedicated and caring staff are passionate about nurturing children so that they have the best possible start to their educational journey.

At our schools all children and families are valued and treated with equal respect.  Our inclusive culture means that diversity is embraced and celebrated within our school community.

We are extremely proud that both schools have been rated as “Outstanding” by Ofsted with the most recent inspection taking place here at Cherry Trees in July 2019.

Happy, healthy children who feel valued within a safe and secure environment will thrive.  Our aim is for every child to achieve their potential and we look at each child’s learning and development holistically and individually.  Adults support and scaffold children’s learning in response to their individual needs and interests.  Our curriculum provides rich learning experiences with opportunities for children to deeply embed their learning.  We want our children to have high levels of well-being and involvement, to enjoy their learning and play, to explore their sense of curiosity and to develop the necessary skills which will provide them with the firm foundations to continue their lifelong learning journey.

Please contact the school office if you would like to book a show around with myself or Suzie, the Deputy Head Teacher.  We look forward to working in partnership with your family and beginning your child’s learning adventure at Cherry Trees Nursery School.
