Red Hill Awarded ‘Outstanding’

We are delighted to confirm that our lovely nursery at Red Hill has retained its ‘Outstanding’ judgments in all areas of the curriculum. Since opening its doors in 2009 the pre-school has always received the top accolade of ‘Outstanding’ and the recent inspection in March 2020 has again highlighted the exceptional education and care we provide young children.

Congratulations to Fiona our manager, and all our lovely staff for an amazing result. Team work and a real passion for working and caring for young children is at the heart of everything we do.

About our pre-school

Our pre-school located on the grounds of Red Hill Primary School in Chislehurst offers flexible but affordable childcare between the ages of 2 and a half and five years. The pre-school is open all day from 8.45am to 3.30pm during term time.

Parents can choose their sessions from all day childcare to a morning or afternoon session. We also provide a breakfast club for the early starters and a lunch club for the children who attend a full day.

Our lovely pre-school was designed by a London architect and offers a light and airy space, and an environment which is secure and welcoming for all our families.

The pre-school offers wonderful outside opportunities for children to play and explore, with a large grassed front garden that supports children’s physical development. Activities such as ball games, assault courses and sports day are enjoyed by the children on a regular basis. The extensive shaded areas in the front garden are perfect for teddy bears picnics, role play and sand and water play.

To the rear of the property is a large soft playground which is accessed from the main nursery hall. The design of the building allows for the sliding doors to fully open creating an extended outside classroom. Red Hill also benefits from a special outside space named the ‘Secret Garden’. This lovely area contains large planters where children are able to grow plants and vegetables.

New for 2022 – We are absolutely thrilled with the lovely new look to our pre-school, during the summer holidays our building benefitted from an complete exterior refurbishment and is now painted in a calming sage green. We have been delighted by the many compliments received from our parents and visitors. Due to the increasingly hot summers we have also invested in air conditioning in all of our playrooms.

Thank you for inviting us to celebrate grandparent’s day. My mum and I really enjoyed it. It was lovely to see how Mathew is spending his time in nursery. He was very excited to show his grandma around. She was absolutely amazed by all the different activities, lovely teachers and the secret fairy garden. Honestly there is nothing you could have done differently as it was perfect.

To the wonderful teachers at Red Hill. Thank you so much for all the love, care and attention you have shown our boys since they began. You really helped Max overcome his worries and help shape the confident little boy he is. Max has had a wonderful 2 years and made lots of memories. Nicole, Ed, Max and Lucas

I cannot believe Albie is leaving today, it seems like only yesterday my shy, tiny boy started. We were so nervous!! We knew we had chosen the right nursery because of the gorgeous setting but we just could not have wished for ladies so incredibly wonderful to teach our darling boy. To say we are thankful is miles away from the gratitude we have for your loving, caring incomparable way that you have helped Albie thrive, enjoyed and moulded his character today, how he had changed … and I am so grateful that Rose can have the same preparation for big school. There is no other place like the nursery you are amazing!!

Amy & Darren - September 2019

Thank you so much for all of the fantastic care and support you have given Thea. She has had the time of her life at nursery and that is no doubt 100percent down to you all. It has given her the most fantastic foundation for moving on to school for which we are so grateful. Wishing you all the most restful summer break.
