The dedicated nursery staff include a very experienced Teacher and a highly qualified Teaching Assistant who are committed to providing a learning environment that will encourage children to explore, learn and grow.
At Holy Family, we recognise each child as a unique and special gift from God and can’t wait to nurture and enhance their early childhood experience.
