About Thornbury
Nursery
Welcome to Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School in Thornbury — a warm, welcoming, and purpose-built setting where children thrive through play, exploration, and learning. Situated on one level with direct access to a large, secure garden, our nursery offers free-flow access between indoor and outdoor areas, encouraging independence and active learning from the very start.
Our location is ideal for families commuting to Bristol or Gloucester, with designated parent parking for stress-free drop-offs and collections. Set within the heart of the Thornbury community, the nursery is just a short walk from the local library and park — giving children opportunities for regular outdoor walks and engagement with the wider environment.
Inside, our calm and friendly atmosphere is instantly felt upon arrival. Each space has been thoughtfully designed to support child-led learning and promote confidence, creativity, and wellbeing. Our baby rooms have recently undergone a full refurbishment, creating an even more nurturing and stimulating environment tailored to the needs of our youngest children.
Our experienced and caring team is passionate about providing high-quality early years education in an environment where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn every day.

Meet The Manager
Sammie Fry
My name is Sammie, and I am the new manager of Happy Days Thornbury.
I have been working within the childcare sector for over 16 years 3 with years management experience. I spent 2 years working in Dubai as a pre-school teacher where my early years knowledge grew even further.
Working in early years has always been a huge passion of mine. Seeing the children flourish throughout their nursery experience and supporting families is something that brings me such joy in my career and I am excited to bring my experience, passion and love for childcare with me to Happy Days.
Our Unique Curriculum
Happy Days has developed an ambitious, broad and balanced Early Years Curriculum titled “Where Children Shine”. It provides opportunities for children to learn, explore and discover, whilst attending a Happy Days Nursery.
