Welcome to St. William’s Nursery, Trimdon - 'Little Wills'
“Sharing and being considerate… Safe in the arms of Christ.”
Little Wills Nursery is a joyful and nurturing part of St William’s Catholic Academy, where our mission shapes everything we do. We believe that even our youngest children should experience a setting built on love, kindness, and encouragement - a place where they feel safe in the arms of Christ as they take their first steps in education.
Our nursery is a warm, vibrant space where children learn to share and be considerate, work together as a team, and develop confidence through exploration and play. Every day, we aim to foster curiosity, independence and resilience - helping children to aim high and do their best, all within a caring family environment where many smiles are shared.
