East Granby Congregational Church Nursery School A play-based, half-day preschool in East Granby, CT, we welcome 3-5 year olds from surrounding towns! Since then we have nurtured and cared for many children.

Back in October 1970, our school first opened its doors for area preschool children. We are a small school housed in a bright room with a safe play area outside where we bring nature to life. We enjoy potluck dinners, school events, and we work together on community outreach events. We are definitely a nursery school family. Our preschool focuses on gentle learning through play - we believe children learn best through play and experimentation. We include music, art, stories, French, and outdoor play in our daily routine. Our classroom offers a wide variety of open-ended, educational materials and activities, which is enriched by special programs such as field trips to local farms. Come visit and see what we're all about! We welcome visits by children and their caregivers.

Are you looking for a soft and loving preschool for your child? Are you hoping to find a school grounded in strong foundations of early childhood philosophy with a focus on learning through play? Do you want your child to be immersed in nature and imagination? If your answer is yes, come check out our school. Our teachers have three Master of Education degrees between the two of them and combined decades of teaching experience. They incorporate whole body movement, exploratory play, music, and art along with bringing STEM concepts to life daily. Our playground has spaces thoughtfully designed for preschoolers and includes a digger zone, multiple sensory gardens, a water table, tree house, climbing equipment, and so much more. We have open enrollment ongoing for the ‘26-‘27 school year and will be opening enrollment for the ‘27-‘28 school year in January. Feel free to message us and book a tour!
