Welcome to Norbury Hill Cubs
Where home meets education in a unique blend of love, care, and fun learning.
Our commitment to your child's growth is rooted in 'The NHC 12' curriculum, inspired by the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) along with elements from Reggio, Montessori, and Curiosity Approach Theories.

Since 2007, our doors have opened to provide a stimulating environment, ensuring children develop the physical, emotional, and intellectual confidence crucial for their future.

At Norbury Hill Cubs, we believe in making learning an adventure filled with love and care. For parents, we understand the significance of leaving your child in someone else's care. Whether you're a first-time parent or a returning one, our goal is to offer peace of mind.

Our NHC community is not just a nursery setting; it's a family that provides a home-like environment for your children.

We take pride in our thriving parent community, where connections are forged, and support is abundant. Our dedicated staff is an integral part of the NHC family, characterised by low turnover, recognition through staff awards, and, of course, enjoyable staff events.

We believe that by looking after our staff, we ensure they can provide the best care and attention to your little ones. At Norbury Hill Cubs, it's not just about education; it's about creating a nurturing space where love, care, and learning intertwine to build a foundation for a bright and promising future for your child.

Grow, Explore, Develop, and Celebrate

In our nurturing environment at Norbury Hill Cubs, our ethos revolves around four key themes: Grow, Explore, Develop, and Celebrate. Our curriculum is designed to foster holistic development, ensuring that children not only acquire knowledge but also flourish emotionally and socially. We embrace diversity by celebrating special occasions like Chinese New Year, Halloween, Eid, Diwali, and Black History Month.

Our ethos

Regular excursions to local treasures such as Streatham Common, Crystal Palace Park, and Norbury Park enhance the children's sense of curiosity and connection to the community. Our commitment to open communication is reflected in our online system, providing parents with individual logins to access daily pictures, weekly menus, and detailed insights into their child's progress.

Through scaffolding methods, we tailor our approach to each child's unique abilities and disabilities, promoting a supportive learning environment. At NHC, we encourage values of respect, inspiring children to form relationships that transcend differences in race, gender, abilities, and cultures. We believe in continuous improvement, actively listening to feedback as we strive for excellence in early childhood education.
