Abacus Nursery is an ‘Outstanding’ charity nursery located in the village of New Romney. We support and nurture children in order that they have the right opportunities to reach their full potentials. We have our bespoke eco-friendly nursery and gardens and are looking forward to developing them to meet the ever-changing needs of our children and families.

We offer a creative curriculum that ensures that learning takes place within an outstanding environment using both the indoor and outdoor provision to maximum effect.
