Nursery Applications – September 2026 start
Please note that we are only able to admit children to Nursery from the term after their third birthday – for September 2026 this would mean children with a date of birth between 1st September 2022 and 31st August 2023. As we are a school nursery most children start in September in line with the academic year – however if we have spaces left and your child turns three between 1st September 2022 and 31st December 2022, we may be able to offer a place from January 2026. We cannot confirm these places until December 2025.
We will be holding tours of our nursery for parents applying for a place in September 2026. These are currently being finalised and will be released shortly.
