Why Choose Chapter House?

Queen Ethelburga’s journey begins in Chapter House, a nurturing and family-centred school designed for children aged 3 months to 10 years. Here, children are introduced to a world of wonder and discovery in a safe and supportive environment, nestled within our beautiful school estate.

Chapter House creates a “home from home” atmosphere, where children are welcomed as “Explorers” on a journey of learning and growth. From the magic of our Early Years classrooms—filled with vibrant displays, natural materials, and spaces dedicated to imaginative play—to our enchanting Forest School nestled in the woods, every day brings new experiences and endless opportunities for exploration.

Meet The Chapter House Community

At our Stay and Play sessions, you'll have the opportunity to meet other families local to the area and speak to staff or parents of the school.
