Welcome to Kendal Nursery School, we are the only Local Authority Maintained Nursery School in Kendal and were established in 1946. Our Website will hopefully give you a flavour of life at Kendal Nursery School and provide you with lots of helpful information.
We know that coming to Nursery is often a child's first experience away from their family; we therefore aim to provide a stimulating, challenging environment which is a warm and friendly extension of home.At Brantfield we are a small but friendly team who have lots of experience in working with children and families.

Our Curriculum
Report
Our curriculum coverage is very much based on the children's interests making each year bespoke and unique to the children attending our Nursery. By following the children's interests we find children are more engaged and inspried allowing us to meet children's learning needs and enabling all children to achieve their full potential.
Outdoor Learning
Report
We recognise the significance of the outdoor environment as an exciting and valuable learning resource for young children. Learning in the outdoors is valued equally as the indoors and children are free to choose where they want to play. Our garden is unique in its layout providing a range of routes to challenge each child's physical ability.
Lunches
Report
Children work and play so hard whilst at Nursery!. Eating a healthy lunch allows them to live life to the full and get the most out of their time at Nursery. Eating healthily helps children with their concentration levels - which in turn affects their development and achievement. Lunch is also an opportunity to learn: about sharing and having a meal with others, using knives and forks, and about healthy eating and food.
Before and Afterschool provision
Report
At Nursery School we realise many parents are juggling work and other commitments and may need some additional hours for their child. To help we allow parents to be able to pay for additional sessions on top of the child's 15 or 30 funded hours or for full days in the 2 year old room. We charge 4.50 per hour.
