Partou Woodlands Park Day Nursery & Forest School is set within two acres of beautiful grounds in Apperley Bridge, offering a unique and highly rated early years experience for families across Apperley Bridge, Greengates and the surrounding Bradford area.
The newly refurbished Forest School for 2026 is a real standout feature. Led by a qualified Forest School Lead, sessions are carefully planned and delivered year-round, with an outdoor classroom, log burner for cooler months and enhanced resources supporting den building, natural crafts, storytelling and teamwork. An upgraded mud kitchen with a dedicated digging area encourages sensory play, investigation and hands-on learning.

Separate outdoor spaces for all age groups include a greenhouse area where children enjoy gardening, developing motor skills, social skills and a sense of responsibility for the environment. Indoors, a well-resourced and homely environment helps children feel safe and confident, and the warm team is consistently praised by families for learning about each child's interests and tailoring activities that engage and inspire at every stage of development.
Extra-curricular activities include football sessions and Songdrawing, a creative activity combining singing, drawing, movement and storytelling that develops fine motor skills, self-expression and confidence.
If you are looking for a nursery in Apperley Bridge with an exceptional forest school and a team that nurtures every child's skills and love of the outdoors, Partou Woodlands Park Day Nursery & Forest School is well worth a visit.

Overall Experience
I am very pleased with the level of care my daughter is experiencing at Woodlands Park Day Nursery. The staff are so kind and caring. I always feel comfortable and safe leaving my daughter in the morning. Most importantly, she loves this place. I couldn't have chosen a better nursery.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys coming to nursery and has made some good friendships with others in her room. She trusts the staff members she spends time with and they are both supportive and caring in their approach.
Of the areas she needs to make further progress (literacy and numeracy being my daughters) - I would prefer more detailed updates on her progress and how we could work with nursery to support her!

My children began attending during the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite this, the staff were extremely supportive in helping my children get settled in and the care they have provided has been excellent. Both children have thrived since attending and they also love going to nursery on their days. Can’t fault the service or staff, I love getting the updates on the app and the food provided is great and healthy.

My son started nursery in Nov and it has taken time for him to adjust and settle in. His key worker and the staff in the baby room have been great. They really put you at ease and make it clear it's okay to check up on your child promoting reassurance. I am very happy to leave my son in their care. I love the videos and updates I get in the Learning Book app. This is a great additional service. So far, I have been impressed by the overall care provided. Thank you!

My son really enjoys coming to nursery, the girls in the room are all really friendly and welcoming. The updates at end of day are really informative and the app is a great way of seeing what he has been up to during the day.

My child loves nursery and clearly has fun every day. The staff in toddler 2 are superb and consistently work had to enable and encourage his development. I regularly see that they are changing and adapting the provision to support the children.

Overall Experience
My daughter has become increasingly confident since settling into toddler 2, and has even given up nappies and her dummy. She's very sociable and knows her entire alphabet, thanks to the support and learning from the staff in toddler 2. Highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

The nursery is lovely, my grandson seems really happy, he is looked after and is getting potty trained as well. The food is lovely and he eats everything up. We receive a report every day as to what he has done.

My son attends Woodland Park Nursery and is currently in preschool. He started off in the baby room when he was one years old and enjoys every day. When he comes home I can see a difference in him. My daughter has recently started in the baby room and after settling she enjoys it too.
