Our Story

Strawberry Fields Forever.

Founded by Maureen Turner in September 1986, Strawberry Fields occupies two remodelled floors in the wing of a landmark Notting Hill church — decorated to the highest standards, with an entrance garden by Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner Andy Sturgeon.

Children, parents and carers are welcomed into spacious, light-filled classrooms set among photographic galleries of pupils past and present, alongside stunning artworks created by the children themselves.

Curriculum

An active, creative curriculum — indoors and out.

Our daily activities explore and develop the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum: communication and language, personal and social development, physical development, mathematics, literacy, understanding of the world, and expressive arts and design.

Specialist teachers visit weekly for French, ICT, dance, swimming, ball skills, gymnastics, tennis, music, science, and outdoor learning.
