Nursery - Mrs Fitzsimons & Miss Boyd (Elephant Class)

Welcome to Rathcoole Nursery!

A nurturing, inclusive, and inspiring start to your child’s learning journey.

In our Rathcoole family, we believe that every child deserves the very best beginning. Our Nursery is a nurturing and inclusive environment where children are encouraged to explore, discover, and grow at their own pace. We believe that positive relationships are the key to children feeling safe, secure and happy at school, and we put this ethos at the heart of everything we do.

We pride ourselves on a child-led approach to learning; recognising that each child is unique, with their own interests, strengths, and ways of understanding the world. Our experienced staff team creates opportunities for curiosity, creativity, and confidence to flourish through play, exploration, and meaningful experiences.

As a forward-thinking and dynamic Nursery, we embrace the latest insights in early childhood education while staying true to the timeless values of care, respect, and community, in alignment with our whole Rathcoole Primary School approach. We were delighted to be recognised for our work along with our Primary One team when we won a UK National Teaching Award for Early Years Team of the Year in 2023!

We hope that our photo album conveys a little bit of the warmth and joy that fills our classrooms every day, and if you would like to find out more about us, we would love to hear from you!
