Every week at Nirmeen

More than a nursery: swimming, music and sport

Alongside the ECD curriculum, every child at Nirmeen swims, makes music, plays sport and starts on computers, so the week is full of firsts.

What we believe

The first years of school should feel safe, joyful and unhurried: a place where every child is known by name, plays with purpose and grows brave enough for Grade 1.

Questions parents ask

Good to know

What ages do you take?

We take children from about 1 year old up to Grade 3. Baby class is for about 1 to 3 years, ECD A for 3 to 4, ECD B for 4 to 5, and our junior school runs Grade 1 to Grade 3.

What are your school hours?

We are open Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm, and the school is open throughout the year. We are closed on weekends and public holidays.

Are you a nursery school, a preschool or a crèche?

All three, in the way Harare parents use the words, and a junior school too. Nirmeen is a nursery and early childhood development (ECD) school, a preschool and daycare for children from about 1 to 5, and our junior school continues to Grade 3.

Can my child stay at Nirmeen after ECD B?

Yes. Children move from ECD B straight into Grade 1 with us and can stay until the end of Grade 3, with teachers and friends they already know.
