  • Beehive Kindergarten, Isle of Man
At The Beehive Kindergarten, they truly believe that children's work is their play.

Opportunities for learning through play are diverse and their beautifully equipped classrooms become a third teacher with resources easily accessible for children. The nursery boasts the largest garden for children with age appropriate equipment and toys available. They take preschool children on numerous outdoor adventure trips, library and museum visits, dance classes and soft play. Including special occasion visits such as annual harvest basket deliveries.

The Hive Holiday Club for children aged 4-11 years is available in all state school holidays as well as Buchan School holidays.
They also have a dedicated baby wing and toddler room for children under the age of two from birth.

It is well worth a visit to see the amazing adventures on offer and the fantastic start littles ones can have by attending a great nursery.

Review from R L (Mother of Child) published on 14 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My LB has attended Beehive since he was 10 months old. He absolutely loves it. The staff are kind, gentle, experienced and really caring. Beehive has great facilities especially the incredible garden. The staff have supported us through my LB's developmental changes in an understanding and caring way.
They've made learning fun for my little boy and will really miss nursery.

Current Review Score: 8.0 (7.998)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.0 (7.998) out of 10 for Beehive Kindergarten is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.917 for Beehive Kindergarten is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 3.081 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Beehive Kindergarten is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 = 3
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 62 number of registered child places is 12.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.4 = 0.081
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
