At Robins, your child will be inspired by a stunning space which has both beautiful architectural features as well as a warm and inviting atmosphere. Your child will enjoy ‘nooks and crannies’ that create private spaces for them to develop imaginative play, the soft, pastel glow of the sun streaming through the stained-glass windows, the shapes that the acoustic boards reflect onto the vaulted ceilings and the secure space of our secret garden where they can explore nature and watch things grow.
