The Alphabet Train was established in 1992, as a traditional Nursery School for children aged between two and five years, and is held in the St. Johns area of Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

We constantly strive to build on the exceptionally high standards of care and education that has earnt The Alphabet Train its excellent reputation.

The aim of the nursery school is to create a caring, friendly, but disciplined environment, in which to learn. 
Through a varied and stimulating timetable, we hope the children will gain the confidence, independence, and social skills to start life at their next school happily and with enthusiasm, fully equipped to achieve their individual potential.

Children can start at the Alphabet Train in our afternoon Playgroup, aged 2 years. They move up to our morning sessions, as “Carriages”, later becoming “Engines”. Activities during a typical session may include art and crafts, cookery, music, sand and water play, physical education, story telling, role play, projects, news and games.
While the children are with us, we also teach them colours and shapes, before moving on to the recognition and understanding of number and letters, so that we hope they leave us able to write their names, and with a good grounding from which to progress.
