Enrolment
If you would like to learn more about our school, you are welcome to book a customised tour with Mamatha, our Centre Director. These visits allow time to observe the children, meet the teachers, ask questions, and learn about our programme, philosophy, and how the school operates.
If you wish to enrol, your child will be offered a place or added to our waiting list, depending on availability and sibling priority.
At Marshwood, all new children begin with orientation days, giving children and parents time in the classroom to learn routines and settle in. We stagger start dates to ensure each child receives individual attention, supporting a confident and smooth transition into preschool.
Fees and Conditions
We welcome your enquiries and visit. We are open 52 weeks of the year, including School Holidays, but excluding Statutory Holidays.
Sessions
Our operating hours are 7.30am to 4.30pm with a minimum enrolment of three days. You and choose full day (7:30-4:30) or short day (8:30 - 3:30). This enables our school to function as a small community, giving the families and children a strong sense of belonging and developing those all important social skills. Full day attendance is extremely important, as it benefits the child to develop the independence and concentration needed before reaching primary school as well as build on their love of learning. This is particularly essential for children between four and five year olds.
Settling in
We encourage you to spend time at Marshwood settling in with your child. It is important your child feels comfortable and starts to bond with the teachers and other children. We suggest you have a visit or two with your child and then leave your child with us for a short period of time. They are welcome to bring along a favourite toy or cuddly to help them settle in if necessary.
Feel free to call us at any time to check on your child is settling in. We are always happy to talk to you and want to make the settling in process as easy as possible.
