Our Nursery Classes
Playful Learning for Every Age in Musselburgh, East Lothian
At Red Fox Nursery, our classes are designed to provide a nurturing, age-appropriate environment where every child can grow, learn, and discover.
We have thoughtfully created three unique spaces, each led by dedicated educators who specialise in the developmental needs of their age group.
Our playful and stimulating curriculum ensures that from their first giggles to their last day before school, every child feels cherished and inspired.

Hedgehogs (6 months – 2 years)
Gentle Beginnings in a Loving Environment
Our Hedgehogs class is a cozy and secure space designed for our youngest learners. We understand the importance of routine and work closely with parents to ensure a seamless transition from home to nursery. Here, children are encouraged to explore the world through sensory play, gentle music, and language-rich interactions.
Our focus is on building trust, fostering early motor skills, and providing a warm, caring environment where little ones feel safe to explore and thrive.
Each day’s activities, including naps, feeding, and milestones, are shared with parents through a daily diary.
Owls (2 – 3 years)
Exploring the World, One Discovery at a Time
As children become more steady on their feet and their curiosity grows, they transition to our Owls class.
This room is a hub of activity, filled with opportunities for imaginative play, creative expression, and social interaction. Our experienced educators guide children through engaging activities such as painting, baking, sand and water play, and music sessions.
We encourage our Owls to learn how to share, cooperate, and communicate with their peers, developing a strong foundation for social and emotional skills in a fun and supportive setting.
Badgers (3 – 5 years)
Preparing for Tomorrow’s Adventures
The Badgers class is where our oldest children begin to prepare for the exciting journey to primary school.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to develop key skills in literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving, all within a playful and interactive framework.
Children engage in a variety of structured and free-play activities, from role-playing and construction to arts and crafts.
We follow a framework that ensures our Badgers are well-equipped with the confidence, independence, and skills they need to excel in their next chapter, while still fostering the joy of learning.
