Everything your little one needs to grow

At Mercy Land, childhood is not a race. It is a journey of curiosity, connection and wonder, and we make sure every part of it is well looked after.

A table of home-cooked meals at Mercy Land

3 meals a day

A cooked breakfast, a morning snack and a hot lunch, made on site. Nutritious food to fuel healthy bodies and busy minds, with seconds for hungry tummies.

Learning through play

Play-based, child-led learning with Jolly Phonics and an age-appropriate curriculum, so children leave ready for Grade 1.

Children playing chess

4 sporting codes

Cricket, rugby, golf and chess are part of every week, and included in your fees.

Farming

Every child gets their own garden plot and a "title deed", learning responsibility, patience and a love for the land.

A home away from home, grounded in faith

Mercy Land began in 2019 with one promise to parents: we will love and care for your child as if they were our own. Today our school is a bright, homely house in Vorna Valley with a big garden for little feet.

  • Every day starts with a Bible story and prayer. Faith is a big part of how children grow here.
  • Qualified, caring teachers who know every child by name and send you daily feedback.
  • Uncompromising safety, with live CCTV so you can watch your little one grow while you work.
  • Winter by the fireplace with warm soup, because a nursery should feel like home.
