Our School
Tarnerland is a state nursery school, run by Brighton and Hove Education Authority. The school keeps normal school holidays, and there is no charge for attending.

We are committed to a policy of multi-cultural, anti-racist education, and a belief in equal opportunities for girls and boys covering all areas of the curriculum.

Lunch is available for some children. Please ask the school for a prospectus for details.

The history of the school goes back to 1933, when it was the Margaret McMillan Open Air Nursery School. It was later named after Miss Letitia Tilbury Tarner, who donated the money to purchase the site (£800).

A booklet about the history of the school (from which these photos are taken) is available from Tarnerland.
