Pathway picture

The Rainbow Nursery school is the church's own nursery school for children aged between two and a half and five years. It meets during term time in the Cross, the church rooms next to the church.

This school aims to proved the community with a valuable service by means of a Christian based nursery school, and to find ways for children and parents to experience the good news of Jesus for themselves.

They have caring, well-qualified Christian staff who are committed to providing a safe, secure and loving environment for the children in their care. There is also a strong commitment to ongoing training, in order to continually review and update ideas.

The school is registered as a full-day nursery school under the Children's Act 1989 and follows Government guide-lines for pre-school education with flexibility and imagination. A comprehensive range of toys, equipment and other stimuli is available for all the children attending, in order to help them progress through a structured learning program.

Ecumenical links with other churches in Haslemere is another important element of the Rainbow, and this is well-developed through the school governors and other church toddler groups.
