Welcome

At Barrow Street Nursery School, we believe that a child’s first educational experience should be rich with meaning. This is why we give your children the freedom to create, the space to express themselves, and daily opportunities to forge critical learning skills. Young learners at Barrow Street pursue self-discovery and collaborative engagement in an environment that promotes a whole student approach.

Here, students grow as individuals while learning to be part of something bigger through school-wide service learning projects. The result is a harmonious continuity between classroom, community, and household.
