Nursery World’s Nursery of the Year Dandelion Education is opening a second site in Norfolk.

The winner of Nursery of the Year at the Nursery World Awards 2017 will open a new setting in Eaton Vale, Norwich, on 16 April 2018.

The new one-acre site will feature a yurt, fire circle, chickens, mud kitchen, vegetable patch and reading pods.

Children will be free to climb trees and make their own toys in the outdoor setting, which will offer places for 25 children aged between two and eight years old for 49 weeks of the year.

Dandelion’s Eaton Vale site will be opened by local author, Guardian journalist and Dandelion parent Patrick Barkham on 10 March 2018, when the nursery will also offer an open afternoon to prospective families.
