A holistic approach to early years learning
At Greenwood Hackney Nursery School, learning is centred around creativity, exploration, and emotional wellbeing. Their philosophy combines child-led activities with structured early years development, helping children grow socially, physically, and academically through play-based experiences. From outdoor forest school sessions and community engagement to sustainable practices and healthy nutrition, every aspect of the nursery is designed to create a nurturing environment where children feel confident, curious, and inspired to learn naturally at their own pace.

A creative curriculum built around exploration
At Greenwood Hackney Nursery School, the curriculum is designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and hands-on learning through a unique project-based approach centred around Planet Earth. Children explore engaging topics such as continents, oceans, jungles, space, and the environment while developing key skills across the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Learning is carefully planned to combine social, emotional, physical, and academic development through play, interactive activities, and real-world experiences, helping every child build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love for learning.
Healthy nutrition to support growing minds
At Greenwood Hackney Nursery School, nutrition is an important part of daily learning and wellbeing. Children are provided with five balanced meals each day, all freshly prepared on-site using organic produce and free-range ingredients sourced from local suppliers. The nursery follows the Eat Better Start Better guidelines, encouraging healthy eating habits, independence, and variety at mealtimes. Children are also involved in food preparation activities throughout the week, helping them build confidence, understand nutrition, and develop a positive relationship with healthy food from an early age. Take a look at our Twickenham and Wandle locations.
