St George's Nursery School
Nursery school education in Edinburgh at St George’s School
Our Edinburgh based private nursery is set in open parkland in the West End of Scotland's capital city.
In a secure and caring pre-school environment children learn through play developing the skills, independence, and confidence to prepare for starting school.
All our nursery staff are experienced specialist Early Years Practitioners and have talents in many different areas including environmental education, Montessori techniques, and graphic design.
Our Outdoor Learning programme is a core part of the curriculum at St George’s and a key aspect of the school’s objectives in nurturing the whole child. Nursery children benefit from many hours of outdoor learning through play in some of the best outdoor adventure play areas in Edinburgh.
Pre-school early days - from 2 - 5 years
We take girls and boys in our pre-school nursery from 2 – 5 years. Boys are welcome until the start of our pre-school year at the age of 4 - 5 years. Please note that from August 2019 the entry point to our nursery will be age 3 rather than 2 as it currently is.
We offer pre and after school care and a holiday club. View our wrap-around care.

"We chose St G's as we love the size of the school and feeling that you get whenever you approach the school. It is so much more than just a place of learning. There is a real tangible sense of community and belonging.
The nursery learning approach is very much child lead and play based. There is a Montessori feel but with a mix of elements which is a credit to the staff and a reflection of their experience. Classes like baking, ballet, gym days, regular performances, gardening are all about encouraging and developing fine motor skills. The size and use of the school grounds is superb as they base a lot of the learning on playing outdoors which we love hearing about from our daughter and following in her online learning journals.
Ultimately, no matter where your child goes on to primary school, the time they will have spent at St G's nursery will give them a lot of happy memories and leave them well rounded and ready to start both P1 and the rest of their life". Parent
