Acorns British Style Nursery
Acorns British Style Nursery was opened in September 2004 to provide high quality early years education and child care for children aged between one and six years. It is modeled on the day nursery provision available throughout England. In 2006, Acorns expanded through the opening of a second site, “Baby Acorns” which is dedicated to specific provision for the youngest age group. In 2008, Acorns expanded further and moved to its present site in order to meet the demand from more new parents. The age groups for three to six year olds are now accommodated in a much bigger building which has enabled
the intake to rise from 36 to 70 children. Baby Acorns currently has 35 children enrolled, bringing the present total enrolment to 105 children, with ten nationalities represented. This figure is the nursery’s maximum capacity. Clearly, the nursery is a popular choice.
