Dunannie
Nursery
The Dunannie Nursery, 'Little Acorns', is located in a beautiful converted barn within the grounds of Dunannie, the Bedales pre-prep school. The light, airy space allows for multi-purpose areas, role play and creative activities. Immediately outside the Nursery is a separate garden and a year-round play area. The Nursery is surrounded by an orchard, which has its own wooden play equipment as well as a newly installed Sound Garden. In addition, the children use the Dunannie school playground and sandpit, and have access to all the facilities at Bedales.
