Set in the stunning grounds of Haberdashers' Castle House Preparatory School, at Castle House Nursery School, we are dedicated to creating a nurturing, stimulating and welcoming environment for all children. Our unique programs incorporate a variety of educational theories, while always keeping the child’s best interest in mind and allowing for hands-on, experiential learning. We don't have shareholders at HCHS. You will therefore find that the fees we charge are very competitive from just £36 per session.

Your Children will become far more independent in Years 3 & 4. They become less involved with a singular teacher in order to take advantage of our specialist educators - particularly in core subjects and senior school entrance preparations. We understand that this can sometimes be the stage at which you may question the progress your child has made at their current school. We are always very happy to meet and discuss your concerns and see if we can help. Upper school fees - £4,085 per term, £12,255 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request.

In this key stage, students transition to a learning environment where they work with a broader range of specialist educators, particularly in core subjects, to ensure they’re well-prepared for the challenges and expectations of senior school. At Haberdashers' Castle House, we recognize that this stage can bring up questions regarding your child’s progress and preparedness for what lies ahead. We welcome discussions with parents who may have concerns and invite you to meet with our staff to explore how we can best support your child’s journey. Upper school fees - £4,355 per term, £13,065 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request.

Sport for All Children have PE and sports opportunities every day Our PE and Games programme teaches the children fitness and skills in many aspects of sport. The aim is to give them at least a taste of as many sports activities as possible, to prepare them for whatever they might take up at senior school. In a week most children will have two lessons of PE, one of Games and one of Swimming (in a heated indoor pool) with our own specialist teachers. In addition, there are after-school sports clubs and various school team practices. Children regularly win badges, certificates and awards in many sports. Teams regularly compete against other schools and take part in regional and national competitions organized by the Independent Schools’ Association. They are taught to be sporting, fair and gracious, whether they win or lose. Football, netball, cricket, tag-rugby and rounders are the main team games played. The school regularly enters teams in cross-country, chess, swimming and gymnastics competitions and has had a great deal of success. Other sports enjoyed by the children at school include athletics, badminton, hockey and tennis. The school currently has a particular strength in schools’ gymnastics and has won many competitions.

Food & Nutrition Exceptional Team We are very fortunate to have developed a fantastic team to deliver our food and nutrition offer to our children. Lead by Head Chef Nick, we produce medals and snacks to restaurant standard. Freshly prepared on site, every day. Five a Day - Every Day! Whether it is snack time, lunch time or high tea, you will always find fresh fruit and crudités on offer. Children are encouraged to eat a balanced diet and make good choices. Variety and Choice We all understand that some children can be fussy eaters. We aim to produce a wide variety of foods to suit all tastes. However, the presentation and 'theatre' added to our lunchtimes encourages even the fussiest of eaters to try something new! Manners Cost Nothing From the babies in the nursery to year six, all children dine together in Davis Hall accompanied by the teaching staff. We allow our children to be independent at the same time as encouraging good table manners, What our parents say Laura , Mother of George The food has been amazing this week! A Michelin Star has been awarded.
