Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Orpington

Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Orpington, located at Rowan House, 64 Sevenoaks Road, Orpington, Kent BR6 9JL. Our nursery is located close to the High Street in the town centre and is only a short walk from Orpington training station, making us perfect for families working in the local area or commuting in and out of London.

Our Orpington nursery provides a nurturing home-from-home environment, for children aged 3 months through to pre-school age. With an emphasis on learning through play, our carefully selected team of practitioners ensure your child is cared for in a safe, secure environment with planned activities to keep them engaged whilst having lots of fun.

We have dedicated rooms for our various age ranges and each room reflects the seven areas of learning, as prescribed in the Early Years Foundation Stage. All of our facilities are designed to be accessible to every child.

We are part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old.

Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged 3 to 12 monthstoddlers aged 12 months to 2 years and toddlers aged between 2 and 3 years old and lastly preschool aged three years plus. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

Pre-school were asked by Francis Chappell & Sons if they would draw some lovely pictures of their mummies to go in their window, and they did such a lovely job...why don't you pop over the road and take a peek 😍

We have had such a busy couple of weeks that we have forgot to share our photos with you.
So here is a summary of the last two weeks here at nursery...

The children have been celebrating Holi, the festival of colour, where they have been using lots of different coloured materials and paints and colours to make beautiful pictures.

They have been celebrating St Patrick's day and trying to find the gold at the bottom of the rainbow.

Pre-school have been so busy collecting pom poms, for their pom pom jar, they reached their target because of all the good tidying up and good listening they have been doing, and as a reward they had a balloon party!

Pre-school were exploring the drain pipes and guttering in the garden and discovered that if they put them together they can transport water through them...they kept adding more and more pipes to it to see how far they could get the water to travel.

Discoverers get to ice some biscuits with April from the kitchen...yummy.

Pre-school have also been busy learning about dinosaurs and how to pronounce their names.

All in all a great couple of weeks.
