Welcome to Glenesk School

At Glenesk Pre-Prep and Nursery School, we specialise in providing an exceptional educational foundation for children between the age of 2 and 7 years old.

We believe that childhood should be a time of wonder, exploration, and joy. That’s why we make it our mission to ensure that your child’s day is filled with special moments of Glenesk magic, every day.

Excellent Early Years provision

Our inspirational and passionate Early Years specialist teachers offer your child an outstanding start to their educational journey. They are committed to providing a stimulating, secure and inspiring environment, helping your child reach their full potential.


Prepared for the future

At Glenesk, every child receives the individual attention and support they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Our children are uniquely prepared for entry at Year 3 to the best selective schools, with many achieving academic or sporting scholarships.


A nurturing and caring environment

Glenesk is not just a school; it’s a home away from home, where your child will feel valued, and excited to learn. Our small class sizes help to ensure that every child’s individuality in all areas is recognised, nurtured and celebrated.

Welcome to Glenesk School

At Glenesk Pre-Prep and Nursery, your child is at the heart of everything we do. We specialise in the care and education of children aged 2 to 7 — a truly magical and formative phase in their learning journey. Our nurturing environment and carefully designed curriculum allow children to grow, explore and thrive in every area of life.

We have high expectations in all aspects of school life. Our passionate team delivers meaningful learning that inspires curiosity, creativity and confidence. Alongside strong academics, we place equal emphasis on personal growth — building kindness, honesty, and resilience from the earliest age.

Every child is known and celebrated for who they are. We provide the right level of challenge and support to help them shine — and prepare them to take the next step with confidence and joy.

I warmly invite you to visit us and discover what makes Glenesk such a special place to begin your child’s educational journey.

Independent Pre-Prep of the Year

We are delighted to have been shortlisted for Independent Pre-prep of the Year 2024.

This nomination recognises our commitment to providing every child with the most perfect start in life, filled with magical memories.

Nurturing compassion through animal care

Our vibrant community fosters care and kindness that extends to our school's chickens and guinea pigs. Beyond the classroom, pupils learn valuable lessons in compassion and teamwork by taking on the responsibility of caring for these feathered and furry friends.

This hands-on experience not only deepens their understanding of the natural world but also creates a nurturing environment where everyone thrives together.

FACILITIES & LOCATION

A wholesome learning environment for your child

Located in the leafy village of East Horsley, we provide age-appropriate facilities that enhance learning for your child. Bright, spacious classrooms and interactive areas in our purpose-built nursery create a comfortable and imaginative environment. Outdoor exploration is also encouraged with dedicated learning spaces and a nature area.

We have a library that offers a wide range of books for young readers, while our main hall hosts vibrant performances. In our dedicated music room, children develop their musical talents through curricular and extra-curricular lessons. Additionally, our main building features an indoor heated swimming pool for aqua fun.
