Balham Nursery School
and Children’s Centre
Balham Nursery School is an outstanding Wandsworth maintained nursery school where we provide a happy, healthy community and everyone can develop confidence, respect for others and a love of learning.
A great education is one of the most precious gifts a child can receive and in everything we do, we are driven by the best interests of the child.
We hope that you and your child will have wonderful memories of Balham that stay with you forever.
We aim to help realise the potential social, intellectual, physical and emotional development of each child irrespective of race, class, gender, culture, language or disability. Our School Development Plan 2018-2021 encapsulates our priorities in order to achieve this goal.
Following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Government have announced that Monday, 19 September 2022 will be a national bank holiday to coincide with the State Funeral. The Nursery will therefore be closed to all children on Monday to mark the last day of the period of national mourning.
We have updated our term dates to include the national bank holiday on 19th September 2022. There is a printable School Calendar available for you to download. balham-nursery.wandsworth.sch.uk/information-for-parents/term-dates
A quick, easy and free way to raise much needed funds for the Nursery. Thousands of retailers, supermarkets, leisure activities, holidays and much more. Do remember to visit Easy Fundraising site and nominate Balham Nursery School and Children’s Centre as your “cause”. There is a handy “donation reminder” that you can add to your toolbar or download the free app. Thank you!
The Government has updated guidance for parents and carers on helping children aged 2 to 4 learn at home during the coronavirus outbreak, including information on supporting a child’s mental health and wellbeing.
