From September 2020, following refurbishment, the Courtyard Nursery at Warminster School, in Warminster, will be providing extended care for two to four year olds, up to 50 weeks a year, from 7:30am in the morning to 6:00pm in the evening.

Early Years specialist, Deborah Muir, will be at the helm.  Deborah, Head of Pre-Prep, has been with Warminster School since September 2019 and has a teaching career spanning almost 25 years.

“I feel privileged to be entrusted with such a key position here at Warminster and look forward to our new and exciting chapter at the Courtyard Nursery, where we can continue to provide an excellent Early Years facility for our busy, hardworking families,” said Deborah.

“Families are looking for a warm, fun and caring environment for their youngsters. For our busy parents, I know how imperative it is that drop off and pick-up times are office friendly – I remember myself the stress of a last-minute meeting and worrying about getting to pick-up on time.

“Here at Warminster, parents have reassurance that wrap-around care is available. Our parents also welcome that their child has enjoyed a tasty hot lunch. It’s all the seemingly ‘little’ things, which in reality are ‘big’ things, that I believe we do so well here, especially when it comes to supporting our children and their busy families.

“Whether it’s in the playground, jumping in puddles, exploring forest school, picking up a musical instrument or singing a nursery rhyme with friends, we focus strongly on social skills, learning to play, kindness, sharing, making friends and so on – knowing these are the building blocks of their school life and beyond. We look forward to welcoming new children and families to become part of our happy school community in September.”

Mr Titley, Head of Prep, added, “We are very excited about the changes ahead at Warminster and look forward to working with current and new parents over the years to come.”
