Welcoming Canopy St Luke’s Chapel

A New Nursery in the Heart of Wickford’s St Luke’s Park
We’re thrilled to introduce the newest addition to the Canopy family: St Luke’s Chapel, a thoughtfully restored nursery setting in the growing community of St Luke’s Park, Runwell. Opening to families in September 2025, this very special nursery has now opened its waitlist, and we’re already seeing strong enthusiasm from local families.

A Unique Beginning in a Remarkable Place
Once a place of quiet reflection, St Luke’s Chapel is being reimagined as a warm, vibrant space for learning and laughter. We are working carefully to preserve the historic character of the building, including original features like the lectern and organ, which will remain in place as part of the carefully designed space. These heritage touches add a richness to the environment and offer children a gentle introduction to local history from the earliest days.
Designed for Childhood, Built for Belonging
At Canopy, we believe nurseries should be more than functional spaces. They should feel like a second home. Inside the chapel, you’ll find light-filled learning areas, cosy corners, and nature-inspired resources designed to spark curiosity, confidence, and calm. Every detail is being considered with families in mind, from our daily routines and outdoor play to the nutritious meals that help fuel your child’s day.
As part of the St Luke’s Park development, Canopy St Luke’s Chapel will be a place where young families in the area can come together. We are proud to support this growing neighbourhood with high-quality early years education that puts children first and supports busy parents too.
Our Waitlist Is Now Open
The nursery will open its doors in September 2025, and our waitlist is now open for families who would like to express their interest. If you’re looking for a nursery that blends care, character and community, we would love to welcome you in.
