History of Holly House
As demand grew for places, the first floor of the house was adapted for after-school children. We were able to accommodate a further 12 children aged between 5 – 11 years. School drop off and collection became part of the daily routine. More space was needed as the demand for places continued to grow – a new purpose built pre-school unit was added to the nursery creating a further 24 places.
The gardens are fenced in and create a safe outdoor play area for the children. Car parking space provides easy access to the nursery.
