Early Years

The best way for children to learn is by having fun doing something for themselves and succeeding. In this way we develop a can-do attitude among children at a very early age which stands them in good stead throughout their school life.

Children can join Russell House at the age of two in our Russell Robins group. They attend for two mornings a week for what is a gentle introduction to school. They develop confidence, familiarity and a happy, positive attitude to learning.

When children move into the Nursery, parents choose how many mornings and afternoons they attend. The emphasis is on flexibility to meet the needs of parents and the development of the child.

Children in our early years classes are happy and secure in an environment which encourages them to move through small steady milestones to develop their independence, confidence and sense of success.
