We accept children at the nursery from the age of three. However, to maximise your chances of getting a place, you can apply to be added to the waiting list before your child turns three. Your child must be at least two years of age before making your application.

If your child is at least two years of age, please complete the following form to have your child’s name added to the waiting list. If your child is currently less than two years of age, please wait until they have their second birthday before applying.
