Once you have visited St Ives Nursery and have decided to register your child for a place, you will be invited to select the sessions you require. We ask that a minimum of 3 sessions per week are booked for 2 year olds upon joining and a minimum of 6 sessions per week for 3 year olds. Our Nursery is open term time only, though holiday clubs are available at varying times throughout the year.
