Starting Nursery
Everyone who successfully applies for a place in our Nursery is invited to a “parents information evening” in the summer term prior to the September start. This meeting takes place at school and formally welcomes the new intake. The meeting always concludes with an opportunity for parents to pop into the Nursery and have a little look at the set up. At this meeting you will also be given a date (usually in June) when you will be able to bring your child in for a morning or afternoon session in the Nursery.
