Next Steps Check List

For a smooth transition and admissions process, there are a few actions for you to complete before September, but the very first next steps are as follows:

1. Complete the Online Registration Form (link below) - this will enable us to add you and your child's details to our school management system. We appreciate that there is a substantial amount of information to supply; however, it is essential for us to have all the necessary information at hand. The approximate amount of time required to complete the form is 30 minutes. 
2. Attend the Parent/Carer Meeting on Wednesday the 12th June at 10am in the school hall - this meeting is an opportunity to meet with staff, find out more about transitioning into Nursery smoothly, uniform requirements, and much more.   
3. Supply of Official Documentation - kindly supply us with an original copy of your child’s birth certificate and proof of address from within the last three months. This can include a utility or other bill. Documents can be brought into the office at your earliest convenience, where we will make a copy for our records. 

School Uniform Requirements

At the Parent/Carer Meeting, on the 12th June,  we will have examples of our uniform on display and more information regarding the requirements. In the meantime, please feel free to visit our suppliers below, or read about our uniform requirements and our Uniform Policy on the website.
