Nursery application forms are available from the school office or can be downloaded on the right. Completed forms should be returned directly to school. You will also need to provide proof of your address and your child's date of birth.

Nursery Afternoons
Nursery Afternoon sessions are held in school and give children and their parents a chance to visit school and play alongside the children in the Infants. Children of all ages are welcome. These sessions run from 1pm -3pm on certain days.
Forest Fridays
These are the chance for children, of all ages, to join us in our own section of the forest on the new path on the way to Ennerdale Water. Sarah, a Senior Teaching Assistant in school, is our Forest School Leader and we put great emphasis on our children learning both in the outdoors and about the outdoors. Our Forest School sessions are skills based and children learn a vast amount of skills during this time.
