Welcome to Stonehill Nursery School
federated with Dale Community Primary School

Welcome to Stonehill Nursery School and our website.  I am very proud to be the Head Teacher of such a vibrant school where the staff are determined to give our pupils an exceptional start to their education.  We are passionate about working in partnership with our parents which includes providing family learning opportunities led by our staff as well as outside agencies.  Please take some time to read the comments below from our most recent Parent Questionnaire.

I hope this website provides you with useful information about our school, but please do not hesitate to contact the school office if you would like any further information or if you would like to visit our school.

Some of the team at Stonehill are Elklan trained, which means we are now an Elklan Communication Friendly Setting (CFSe) the accreditation is awarded to settings that have trained and support all their staff in communication and language development. For more information, please speak to Lucy. We have also taken part in the Hanen Program, which was developed by a speech-language pathologist. It is an early language intervention program for children with language delays, and has since grown to include programs for language delay, autism spectrum disorder
