Apollo Nursery

A little glimpse into what we’ve been up to at Apollo… 🌿🔥

From woodland adventures and cooking around the fire, to using real tools, exploring numbers, creating together and giving our youngest children space to discover at their own pace and our first Apollo birthday.

Every day brings new experiences, growing confidence and plenty of opportunities to wonder, explore and learn through doing.

Real experiences. Real learning. Real childhood. ✨

Nature made beautiful 🌿🌸⛺️

Today we decorated our teepee using flowers, leaves and little hammers - exploring colour, texture and creativity through the natural world. 💙 We also need to say a big thank you to the some of the older children at Lydden Primary School, Dover from Olympus Learning Collective afterschool club for helping.

Sunshine, water learning and lots of little discoveries ☀️💦 The best kind of learning happens when children are free to explore, play and have fun together. 🤍

It’s been amazing the amount of interest in Apollo we have had…we have got a large intake happening from January and some of our days have just a few spaces left.

Nearly one whole week of Apollo Nursery ✨

What a first week it’s been. New friendships, new adventures, lots of exploring and plenty of smiles along the way. 🤍

Seeing our vision come to life and watching the children begin to make Apollo their own has been incredibly special.

Real experiences. Real learning. Real childhood.

Here’s to many more weeks like this 🏛️✨

Something exciting is taking shape… 👀🌿

Our core outdoor space is really starting to come together, with new areas being created for exploring, digging, growing, building and getting wonderfully messy.

We can’t wait to see this space filled with curious little minds and big adventures. 💫

Apollo Nursery - Real experiences. Real learning. Real childhood. 🏛️🌱

At Apollo Nursery, we believe real experiences should be part of everyday nursery life

Not added profit, hidden extras.

That’s why we do not charge a general consumables fee for core experiences such as:
🌿 Forest School-inspired outdoor learning
🌊 Beach School-inspired outdoor learning
🧘 Mind and movement activities
🍞 Baking and cookery
🎨 Creative play
🌱 Outdoor learning
🏃 Everyday sports and movement

These are all part of our Apollo curriculum and something we believe every child should be able to access.

The only routine extra charges are for food choices, such as snacks and lunch. Specialist visits, paid visitors or larger trips may be offered as optional extras, but these will always be clear, separate and opt-in.

Clear fees. Real experiences. Real learning. Real childhood.

A little glimpse into the vision for our outdoor environments at Apollo Nursery 🏛️

Our outdoor provision is thoughtfully designed around two main free-flow spaces, each created with children’s development, curiosity and wellbeing at the heart.

🌿 One area will focus on hands-on learning and exploration. Encouraging creativity, problem solving and discovery through experiences such as sand play, water play, loose parts, mark making and open-ended opportunities.

👣 The second space is designed especially for our youngest children as they begin taking their first steps and exploring the world around them. This sensory-rich environment will include carefully selected plants and natural resources chosen not only for texture, but also for sound, smell and movement creating a calm and meaningful space to learn through the senses.

Beyond our garden spaces, we are incredibly fortunate to have access to a large playing field, pond area and an inspiring forest school environment, alongside the beautiful natural surroundings around us including the stunning River Dour. 🍃

We cannot wait to bring this vision to life and create an environment where children can truly learn, explore and thrive. ✨
