General Information

Admissions

It is our intention to make every effort to admit children in order of date of birth, then date of registration from our waiting list, with priority given to children eligible for the Free Entitlement. We welcome children from all cultural, ethnic, religious and social groups with or without disabilities.

If you wish to send your child to our pre-school, we will endeavour to offer him/her a place but cannot always guarantee that this will be in the term he/she is 2 years 4 months old.

Initially, subject to availability, he/she will be offered two sessions per week. The following term, admission priority will be given to new children of age on the waiting list. Any extra sessions available will then be given out to exisiting children. To obtain additional sessions, contact the Pre-School Manager. Once a child reaches Pre-School Plus age, a maximum of two Pre-School sessions and three Pre-School Plus sessions will be offered, if available.

Clothing

A uniform is availabe for purchase, consisting of a T-shirt or sweatshirt with the pre-school logo on the front. We encourage children to wear these T-shirts/sweatshirts to enable them to have a form of group identity.

We do supply aprons, but if paint or glue is split on to clothing, you should soak the item in cold water prior to washing. Please refer to our clothing policy.

Each child will need a T-shirt, shorts and plimsolls for every Pre-School Plus session. Pre-School Plus children need to have all their clothes labelled with their name.

Please ensure that all items of clothing and bags etc are labelled with the child's name. All children need to bring a coat so that we can go out for walks. No boots of any kind are permitted to be worn during a session.
