Welcome toForest Alliance of Nursery Schools

Play is a right not a privilege. All play is valid.

Our Aim

We want every child to have the best possible start.

  • Your child and our rich and diverse community of communities are at the heart of all we do.
  • We are a local authority nursery school. Our staff are qualified teachers and early years experts. Our high-quality teaching grows children into confident, curious learners.

What is high-quality teaching? What do children learn?

  • We welcome and value each child. They feel happy, secure, and that they truly belong with us. They feel safe and ready to learn.
  • We get to know them well. We meet each child where they are. We see what they need next. We give them equitable opportunities. Together we thrive.
  • Side by side, we follow their interests. They build on what they know. They grow their unique strengths.
  • We create free-flowing and exciting play, outdoors and indoors. Children make their own decisions. They take safe risks. They build resilience.
  • We offer different and varied experiences. They learn to celebrate all languages, cultures, backgrounds, and starting points .

We learn from the children we teach. We all grow in this diverse community of communities.

Our Values

Children First

Every child has the right to play, learn, and be listened to. We celebrate each child’s individuality and help them grow into confident, capable learners.

All Families Matter

Parents and carers are their child’s first and most important educators. You are an expert in your child. We welcome you to be part of nursery life. We work closely with you to support your child.

Community at Our Heart

We are a proud part of our diverse community of communities. We designed our curriculum for the children and families of this area. We share our expertise across Waltham Forest and beyond. Everyone benefits.

Experts Working Together

Our nursery is a centre of excellence. Our staff are early years specialists. We team up with other professionals to give children the very best support.

Kindness, Respect, and Equity

We value kindness, friendship, and respect. We work to be equitable. We teach children to care for themselves, each other, and the world around them.

A Warm Welcome for Every Child

Our thoughtful settling-in processes help children feel comfortable and supported from day one. When children feel they belong, they learn beautifully. They grow strong. When it's time to leave, they are ready.

As these values evolve, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child remains our touchstone.
