Welcome from the Nursery and Pre-Prep Headmistress
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Gresham’s Nursery and Pre-Prep School, a joyful and nurturing setting in the centre of Holt, North Norfolk.
At the heart of our approach is a simple but powerful aim: we want children to love learning. We encourage them to work hard, develop a deep understanding across a broad range of subjects, and fulfil their individual potential. While we value academic excellence, we never lose sight of the wonder and joy of childhood. Play, exploration, and imagination are central to all we do. We nurture curious, confident learners who think critically, collaborate effectively, express themselves creatively, and grow in independence.
Learning here extends far beyond the classroom. Whether it’s performing on stage, learning a musical instrument, exploring in forest school, taking to the sports field, or enjoying a wide range of hobbies, we offer rich experiences designed to inspire and educate children.
Wellbeing is at the core of our school. Our nurturing environment supports each child’s emotional and social development, helping them build resilience, confidence, and self-awareness, alongside kindness, ambition, and an awareness of others.
We are proud to form the foundation of a broader educational journey at Gresham’s, working closely with the Prep and Senior Schools. This close collaboration provides continuity, consistency, and a clear sense of progression as your child grows and flourishes.
Whether you are a current parent or a family considering joining our community, I warmly invite you to visit us. We would be delighted to show you what makes our school such a special place.
I look forward to meeting you and sharing the exciting journey ahead.
