North Bridge House celebrates return to school with Reception move to Pre-Prep

While the past year has seen schools adapt their provision around the global pandemic and parents juggle home schooling, North Bridge House has been lauded by the CEO of Microsoft for its online provision and praised by parents for its ‘amazing response to the pandemic.’ Now with all pupils settled back into face-to-face teaching and learning, the school is looking forward to the exciting relocation of its Reception year group in September 2021.

September will see Reception take up residency at the school’s Pre-Prep campus, 8 Netherhall Gardens, minutes around the corner from the current Nursery School location. A logistical move given that Reception is a commonplace entry point to Pre-Prep, and one that proved a success when NBH adapted its provision around Lockdown 1 to accommodate the children here.

Set in a spacious yet homely Victorian villa, Reception children will continue to benefit from outstanding Early Years provision at NBH Pre-Prep, with specialist music, storytelling, PE and French lessons, as well as Forest School and philosophy – all in addition to the national EYFS curriculum. The newly installed playground and expansive outdoor space will allow for additional extra-curricular opportunities, including tending to the pet chickens.

North Bridge House is holding COVID-secure tours of the Prep-Prep School on Saturday 17 April. Book now at www. northbridgehouse.com/open or call 020 7428 1520 for further appointments.
