Early Years

Why Nursery?

Children in Luxembourg who are 4 years old by 1 September must start school in that school year. At St George’s that year is called Reception, however we offer an option for students to join Nursery when they are 3 years old.  

Enrolling in a Nursery setting provides children with high-quality early learning experiences that go beyond childcare. 

Key benefits include:

  • Structured learning environment: EYFS settings offer a carefully planned curriculum tailored to early childhood development.
  • Social and emotional growth: Children develop vital social skills such as cooperation, turn-taking and communication.
  • Qualified Early Years practitioners: Staff are trained to support learning through play, pedagogy, and develop early literacy and numeracy skills.
  • School readiness: Nursery provides a smooth transition to Reception, ensuring children are confident and prepared.
  • Stimulating learning opportunities: From outdoor exploration to creative arts, children engage in meaningful learning experiences daily.
