About Tkp Partners Limited

TKP Partners Limited - trading as The Woodland Nursery. The Woodland Nursery is an outdoor nursery for 2 to 5 year olds based on the Forest School approach. We believe in the Forest School ethos that the closer to nature children are, the happier they will be and therefore the more likely they are to learn. Our Forest School nurseries are located in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, South East London and offer a unique outdoor experience, all round education and whole bucket load of messy fun.

Things to consider

The nursery is outdoors in all weathers, so the applicant needs to enjoy being outside and not be worried about getting muddy and dirty. We are a small nursery setting, so the team is small, and we all work closely together.
