Working together to achieve the best
Welcome to Dorking Nursery School and Children’s Centre!
Consistently rated ʻOutstandingʼ we are the only maintained nursery school in Dorking for children aged 2-5 years and have been at the heart of the Dorking community since 1939. Our Childrenʼs Centre is an invaluable resource for local families from birth onwards. We offer support and advice as well as activities and courses.
We embrace every child's individual needs and our diversity makes us unique. All our children benefit from exceptional, specially trained teachers and supportive experienced early years staff.
Our focus on education and learning creates an environment where every child and family can achieve their potential. We help every child to flourish and blossom giving them the best start in life.

In September 2018, we entered into a new and exciting partnership with Chertsey Nursery School and Children's Centre, providing leadership and governance support. To find out more about how we work with Chertsey, click here.
