We are delighted that you have chosen our Nursery or Reception for your child. We are very much looking forward to welcoming and working with your family. We appreciate that starting anything new can be daunting and that starting school is a big and exciting step on the next part of your child's educational journey. We want to make that journey as easy and enjoyable as possible.
