Ashbourne has purchased The Oak Children’s Day Nursery in New Ollerton, Newark, from Harp. The setting is now known as Ashbourne Day Nurseries in New Ollerton.
Ashbourne registered the nursery with Ofsted in June, a week after Nursery World reported that the Harp Group had just nine nurseries left after purchasing 26 from Welcome in August last year. The setting in New Ollerton was one of the 17 to close.
It is the fourth nursery Ashbourne has bought from the Harp Group. In April, Nursery World reported that Ashbourne had acquired Harp's settings in Central Leicester and Alfreton. Last December Ashbourne took over Harp's Wellingborough site.
