Our Ethos
At Green Tree we believe curiosity sparks a child's love for learning. Our nature-inspired environment encourages exploration and discovery, with a child-led approach that invites awe and wonder. Our dedicated staff support each child's unique journey, nurturing independence, and a sense of curiosity through thoughtful and responsive guidance.

We operate on a strong ethos built around child-led, play-based learning and the concepts of Hygge and The Curiosity Approach.
Our nursery setting has been carefully designed with our ethos in mind, providing a calm and tranquil space for children to learn, explore and discover the world around them in a supportive, safe environment.
We are Ofsted Registered and rated ‘GOOD’ in all areas!
