The Agenda
How the day runs
Two hours inside the nursery, then two hours of celebration in the garden. Come for one half or stay for both.
Inside the nursery
Meet us, see the rooms, hear the plan
The first half of the day is indoors — a chance to meet the team, walk the building and understand exactly what your child's day will look like.
- 1
Welcome & networking
Meet Jalpa and the team over refreshments, alongside the other families joining us in September.
- 2
Look around the nursery
Walk the classrooms, the garden and the halal kitchen — the brand-new building, before it opens.
- 3
Presentations
How the Islamic curriculum and the Montessori method work together, and how September places are allocated.
Outside in the garden
A celebration for the children
The second half moves outdoors and belongs to the children — a Mawlid celebration, not a sales pitch. Bring the whole family.
- 1
Face painting
A face painter on site through the afternoon — every child goes home with something.
- 2
Playground activities
Games and run-around time in the outdoor space the children will use every day.

Stay as long as you like
No fixed finish for the children — come at 10, come at 12, stay for the part that suits you.
Registered families get the final running order by email the week before, so you know exactly when to arrive.
What your child will learn
Our Curriculum & Values
A snapshot of the values woven through every day at Preston Road — tap through each one.
Bismillah in everything
Every class opens with Bismillah, every small joy meets Alhamdulillah, and whatever comes next is framed with Insha'Allah. Through simple duas woven into the daily routine, your child grows up speaking gratitude as naturally as they breathe.
A glimpse inside
Our nursery
Bright Montessori rooms, calm spaces, and a day rooted in faith — a feel for the time your child will spend with us.
Drag to explore
Open to Everyone
Children of every background, learning side by side. Here, belonging has no borders.
A Second Family
Friendships built on real brotherhood and sisterhood. They arrive shy and leave with family.
Teachers Who Understand
Guided by teachers who share your faith, your child learns to listen, share and show good adab.
The Gift of Focus
Lost in the sand tray, building the patience and love of learning that Islam honours.
Every Meal, a Blessing
Wholesome halal food, shared together, with every plate begun in the name of Allah.
Always Looked After
Small classes and staff who lead with warmth and compassion, so your child is always seen, never just a number.
They'll Love It Here
A room full of friends and happy faces your child will flourish in, and never want to leave.
