Nursery & Reception Entry

We’re delighted to welcome children into the Nursery from the term after their third birthday (minimum sessions apply).

Starting at Nursery makes the transition into Reception smooth and joyful, as children become familiar with the routines, meet their teachers, and grow comfortable in their surroundings – ensuring a confident start to their formal school experience.

We also have a limited number of places available for Reception entry at age 4+. As these places fill quickly, we encourage early registration to give your child the best chance to begin their Churcher’s adventure.

Full details of the Admissions process for Nursery and Reception can be found below. Our friendly Admissions team is here to guide you every step of the way – please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
