Our School

St Nicolas’ C of E Infant School is the last small Guildford-town infant school. We have the advantage of being close to everything the town offers, including the castle, river, museum and library, yet situated on a quiet and green site reminiscent of a village school.

The beautiful, original Victorian building houses the school offices and the hall where we gather for our daily Acts of Worship, Physical Education, lunch and clubs.

An extension provides 3 spacious classrooms and a library. Each classroom offers a well-resourced, stimulating, colourful and safe learning environment with its own cloakroom and easy access toilet facilities. All three classrooms have interactive smartboard technology.

There is a playground and Forest School area. We have a garden with raised stage, storyteller’s chair and raised beds for growing vegetables. There is also a sizeable playing field used for lunch time play in good weather and for events such as Sports Day and after-school sports clubs.

Access to the school for pedestrians is by steps from the Portsmouth Road, or down from the back lane, leading off from The Mount. Parking is available at the United Reformed Church opposite the school, with pedestrian crossing.
