About us:

Bowerdean Nursery School is a state maintained nursery school serving a diverse and multi-cultural area of High Wycombe.

It is part of the Growing Together Federation which also includes Mapledean Nursery School also in High Wycombe and Henry Allen Nursery School, Amersham.

The three schools work together, collaborating on many issues whilst retaining their distinct characters.

We have an amazing team who put the children at the centre of everything we do.

There are two classes of 3-4 year olds, each with its own teacher, and a small group of 2-3 years olds.

They have separate indoor spaces for the start and end of sessions. During free flow time all children enjoy the indoor and outdoor spaces freely. In addition, we run Forest School every week. Some children have 15 hours provision, others 30 hours. We have a number of children with special needs and much is done to support their learning.

Bowerdean Nursery site was completely refurbished by Buckinghamshire Council in 2016.

You will join a great team and work together to offer the best possible education and care for our children and families.
