Facilities
Ashgrove Nursery School is a purpose-built school furnished and resourced in order to set a climate of purposeful learning.
Welcome to Ashgrove Nursery School
Ashgrove Nursery School is a happy place to be – whether you are 3 or 4; a mum or dad; a grandparent, aunt or uncle; childminder; or if you are part of our teaching and support team. Based in Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland, our core aim is to provide a positive learning environment for children and where we endeavour to make their first taste of school enjoyable and beneficial. Our visitors receive a warm welcome and a friendly smile – what better way to start or end your day!
Ashgrove Nursery School is funded by the Department of Education and operates under the Education Authority, North Eastern Region.
At Ashgrove Nursery School we like to be innovative and take delight in expanding our own professional development. This year we have been trained in LEGO Therapy, Behaviour as a means of Communication and Building Mental Health and Resilience in Young Children.
In this way, we believe we will fulfil our vision, ‘If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn’, Ignacio Estrada
