How to enroll

  1. 01

    Step 1: Get in touch

    Call or write to us, or send the form on the contact page. Dima or one of the teachers answers within a working day.

  2. 02

    Step 2: Book a tour

    A tour is a class morning. You see the room while class is on, and a parent on duty tells you what the job is like. Children are welcome to come along.

  3. 03

    Step 3: Apply

    Fill in the application on our enrollment page. It asks for your contact details and your child's age, and nothing medical.

  4. 04

    Step 4: Register

    When we offer a place, you complete the family forms on our enrollment page, including pickup and medical details, privately.

  5. 05

    Step 5: The first day

    A teacher walks you through the room before your first duty morning. On your child's first day, plan to stay a little while at the door.
