Admission to Foundation Stage 1 (Nursery)
Please call in for an application form.
Sandbrook has a nursery for universal funded hours (15 per week). Children are able to join our Foundation 1 class the term after their 3rd birthday. Children will be invited to a 'stay & play' session before they officially join to enable them to meet their teacher and familiarise themselves with their classroom.
If you qualify for '30 hours' funding or would like to pay for 'extra sessions', please complete the necessary form and return it to the office (places offered are subject to available child / staff ratios).
