Nursery
After confirming our availability, we will send you information on how to formally register for a place. Close to your child’s start date we arrange a number of settling in visits to help ensure a smooth transition from home to The Elms nursery. Parents are also invited to come in and meet with staff before your child joins us. A welcome information pack is also provided to all families.
Pre-School
After confirming our availability, we will send you information on how to formally register for a place. Children joining Pre-School are invited to join us for a stay and play visit before they start. This is a fun and relaxed opportunity for us to get know your child and for your little one to enjoy some time making friends. Following a successful stay and play visit we will confirm the offer of a place. Further visits can be arranged to support with your child’s transition to The Elms.
When a child joins Pre-School at The Elms, 15 hour and 30 hour funded places are accessible, subject to availability.
