About Thorne Manor Day Nursery and Pre-school

 

Thorne Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School is an Ofsted registered provider situated on a working farm just outside the market town of Holsworthy, Devon. We established in 2004 and the setting has achieved an Outstanding Ofsted judgement three times consecutively. The nursery is open each weekday from 08.00 to 18.00 for 50 weeks of the year. A holiday club for older children is also available each school holiday.

At Thorne Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School we are committed to promoting the welfare and development of all young children up to the statutory school age. We aim to provide a good quality of care and education in a safe and secure environment, ensuring parents that their children are well cared for in a stimulating environment filled with happiness and fun.

Our experienced and highly qualified staff will aim to continually set high standards of care and education alongside those set out in the National Standards meeting each child’s individual needs and development.
