Our toddlers had the best adventure this week – a trip to the Wild Things Play Project!
We hopped on public transport, explored, played, and even had a little picnic lunch together. So much fun, so many giggles, and lots of memories made along the way.
Real-world learning, real-world joy, and a lovely day out for everyone involved!
This week, we marked a big moment at Ambourne – our preschoolers graduated and are getting ready for their next chapter at school 
Here are just a few snaps from a very special day filled with proud smiles and lots of cheering from the Ambourne team!
We’ll miss them more than words can say, but they’ll always be part of the Ambourne House family.
A little late… but worth the wait! 
Our June Staff of the Month is the wonderful Luiba – whose kindness and dedication brighten every room she walks into. Whether she’s comforting little ones or supporting the team, Luiba always gives her best!
Thank you, Luiba, for all that you do – we’re so lucky to have you at Ambourne. 
From eggs to apex – the preschoolers have been exploring the crocodile life cycle and loving every second! 
Learning about the world around them helps children build curiosity, language, and confidence… one snap at a time.
At Ambourne House, we love wooden toys – and it’s not just because they look lovely! Inspired by the Montessori approach, wooden toys help children focus, build real-world skills, and learn through hands-on play – all while being better for the planet 
Simple really is powerful!
Our Preschool globetrotters have been busy exploring the world – one flag at a time!
They’ve loved diving into maps and colours. It’s been a brilliant way to spark curiosity and build those early geography skills! Ambourne adventures really do go far and wide!
It’s celebration time at Ambourne – Happy birthday to the wonderful Mary! 
Here’s to a day full of love, laughter and cake! 
We’re firing up the grill for a summer BBQ at Ambourne House on Saturday 19th July, and everyone’s welcome!

Our toddlers are diving into this month’s book, “Clean Up!”. With inspiration from the story, we’ve been exploring marine life, how to care for our oceans, and having lots of fun along the way! Big ideas, little hands, and plenty of imagination 
A lovely visit to the library – lots to see, lots to choose and plenty to enjoy! Exploring new spaces and stories together is all part of the adventure.
Join us in wishing a very happy birthday to Melba! 
Her warmth and dedication make Ambourne Nursery a brighter place every day. Hope your day is as wonderful as you are!
At Ambourne House Nursery, we don’t just watch children grow – we grow with them. Every smile, every tumble, every tiny triumph matters here.
Our play-led learning approach is grounded in love, curiosity and connection – because we know the early years aren’t just a phase, they are the foundation of everything to come.
Lots of digging, planting and muddy hands in the garden this week! 
Fresh air + sunshine + muddy adventures – what’s not to enjoy!
Last week, our little explorers headed off to Primrose Vale Farm for a big day out in the sunshine! They picked strawberries, cooled off with ice creams and had the BEST time playing in the farm’s fun play area! And the sweetest part? They brought their strawberries back to nursery to share with everyone 
The perfect summer adventure!
