NIVAN LODGE AT THE PAVILION !

^{After over 30 years at the King Charles Church Hall in Warwick Park, we have moved to the Linden
Park Cricket Pavilion on Tunbridge Wells Common. This not only provides excellent indoor space and is away from busy roads, but also has drop off parking, an outside play area - AND the whole of the
Common for exploring, outside activities and learning about nature.}

An Introduction to our Nursery

Nivan Lodge is a 30 place pre-school nursery set in the quiet and rural surroundings of Tunbridge Wells Common.

Nivan Lodge - Main Nursery

Nivan Lodge provides a warm, safe environment for children aged from two years old until ready for school, with a dedicated team of highly qualified staff providing a varied range of activities and equipment for play, learning and fun.

If places are available children can start at any time during term-time. To ensure continuity, priority is automatically given from one term to the next to existing Nivan children, and waiting lists are then prioritised by siblings and then by order of birth.

The nursery is open all weekday mornings, Term Time only (following generally the Kent term-time calendar), 9 - 12 noon.

'Lunch Club' is an optional additional hour for those parents who require that bit of extra time and is available on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 12.00 noon - 1.00pm. Children need to bring their own packed lunch as unfortunately we are not able to prepare food on the premises.

Funded Places

We are able to offer places to children eligible for Early Years Funding for both 2year olds and 3/4year old's, and are able to offer a limited number of 'Free For Two' (FF2) places.
