Nursery Admissions Form, please click here
Once we have received the admissions form for your child, we will put your child's name on the waiting list for a place in the term after your child turns 3. We will normally contact parents 6-8 weeks before your child is due to start. When we contact you we will give you a number of visit dates, a home visit date and a start date.
During the visits to Nursery we discuss the transition process and fill in all other paperwork. For more information about our Nursery please visit our Nursery class page.
