What we do
The Lighthouse Nursery is a modern purpose-built nursery serving Thornhill and the surrounding area.
Lighthouse Nursery is run from a designated nursery room with its own toilet facility within the Thornhill Church Centre. The nursery has a garden attached which we use whenever possible to play and learn outdoors.
The purpose of the Nursery is:
To serve pre-school children and their parents in the Thornhill area by providing the best environment to develop the whole child.
Children from all cultural, ethnic religious and social groups with and without special needs are welcome. The primary language spoken is English with incidental Welsh included.
Based on Christian principles, we value each child as an individual, and each family as special. We aim to care for, nurture and encourage every child to achieve his/her full potential. Our goal is to cultivate happy, confident, self-motivated and enquiring children.
