Aldwickbury Nursery Is Open
We’re delighted that the Aldwickbury Nursery is officially open, enabling boys and girls to begin their Aldwickbury journey from the age of 3.
The Aldwickbury Nursery was formally opened on Friday 4th September by Victoria Collins, MP for Harpenden and Berkhamsted. More than 60 guests attended the launch event to celebrate the occasion and explore the school’s newest learning environment. Families were invited to tour the purpose-built Nursery, meet Aldwickbury’s Early Years specialists and enjoy a range of activities, followed by afternoon tea.
The opening comes at an exciting time for Aldwickbury School as it continues its successful transition to co-education. The launch of the Nursery enables boys and girls to begin their Aldwickbury journey from the age of three, with the school set to become fully co-educational by 2031.
What Does the Aldwickbury Nursery Offer?
Aldwickbury Nursery offers a nurturing and stimulating environment where children can develop their confidence, curiosity and independence through play-based and specialist-led learning. With two purpose-built classrooms within a dedicated Early Years setting, Nursery pupils have the space and support to explore, discover and build a lifelong love of learning.
They also benefit from Aldwickbury’s outstanding facilities, including the swimming pool, state-of-the-art Sports Hall and dedicated STEM Hub, as well as 20 acres of beautiful grounds. From the very beginning of their Aldwickbury journey, children are given opportunities to experience a broad and enriching curriculum in an environment designed to help them thrive.
An Exciting New Chapter for Aldwickbury

By welcoming boys and girls from the age of three, the Nursery provides an opportunity for children to become part of the Aldwickbury community from the very beginning of their education.
