Chestnut Avenue (Rated "Good" by OFSTED October 2022) is where the very first Chestnut Nursery School began in 2002, setting the foundation for the group’s long-standing commitment to excellence in early years education. Located in a friendly residential area, Chestnut Avenue offers a warm, welcoming environment that feels like a home away from home. The nursery provides a safe, secure space where children aged 0 to 3 years can explore, learn, and grow through play and discovery.

The setting includes well-resourced indoor rooms and a secure outdoor area, supporting both structured and free-flow learning. Children are encouraged to develop independence, confidence, and curiosity through a balance of adult-led and child-initiated activities.

Following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Chestnut’s own core curriculum, the nursery supports children’s development across all key learning areas—nurturing each child’s unique interests, strengths, and needs.
