WELCOME TO LAUREL'S BAY PRESCHOOL


Hello and welcome to Laurel’s Bay Preschool, Abuja. 

At Laurel’s Bay, we use the natural curiosity of children and stimulating resources to teach children Numeracy, Reading, Critical thinking, and other important developmental skills to enable them build a solid and lasting foundation for the rest of their lives.

Our MOTTO is nurturing creativity and respect!

At Laurel’s Bay Preschool, much emphasis is places on nurturing children in ways that enhance their creativity and also highlight the importance of respect for themselves, others, the society and their environment at large.

Our MISSION is to groom confident, independent, creative, respectful, disciplined, innovative, religiously and culturally tolerant, knowledgeable (nationally, globally and intellectually), skilled and patriotic citizens.

Our VISION is to bring up:
Respectful, Independent and Creative children.

Some of you might ask, what is Laurel’s Bay?
Well, in ancient Greece, crowns are made of branches and leaves of the Laurel and it is a symbol of victory, reward and recognition. So, Laurel’s Bay Preschool is a home for bringing up kings, Queens and victors to become confident men and women that will excel in their chosen careers in future.

At Laurel’s Bay Preschool, we are committed to providing a safe, secure facility that is equipped with developmentally appropriate resources.

Our approach to your Child’s learning is focused on initiative, planning, engagement, problem solving, use of resources and reflecting.

Our Preschool’s culture is built on RESPECT! Respect for self, others, society and everything at large.

We provide an avenue for friendship to thrive amongst pupils, the Preschool and parents and we also place emphasis on building a loving and caring Preschool community.

We run a comprehensive curriculum at Laurel’s Bay Preschool. We use a blend of HighScope, British Early Years Framework and Nigerian Curriculum, with a touch of Religious and International Components. The Religious Component covers Islam and Christianity only.


We are located at Plot 123, Golden Spring Estate, Opposite SunnyVale Estate, Off Ring Road 2, Duboyi District, Abuja.
