Duns Community Nursery and Whiteadder Watersports Centre are coming together to raise awareness and funds for our new nursery.

Our nursery is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) run by a community of local parents and staff. We believe our children are at the heart of everything. By developing and encouraging the uniqueness of every child, ensuring their growth is about them and not employing a one size fits all approach. Providing a safe, warm space allows them to find themselves.

Our nursery provides childcare for over 39 children from Duns and the surrounding areas. Without our nursery there would be very limited options for families to go to, leaving a rural area desperately short of childcare particularly for under 3’s. Our nursery supports families to continue working in an ever challenging economy by providing a 7.30 am – 6 pm, Monday to Friday, 50 weeks of the year, whilst maintaining a home-from-home environment for their wee ones.

The funds raised at the "Duns Dook" on Sunday 30th April 2023, will go towards improving the toilet facilities and also the new calm/sleep (snug) room at the Duns Community Nursery.

Everyone is welcome to partake or just watch and laugh as the "Duns Dook" commences on Sunday 30th April, 10:00 am meet 11:00 dook!
