Seesaw
We use the free app Seesaw to keep you in touch with what is happening in the nursery. In addition to sharing general news and examples of group activities, each child has their own private journal with photos of themselves and their work. Parents receive a QR code at the beginning of the year to access the app.
Enrolment
Enrolment for nursery places takes place in mid- January. Applications are made online; further details are available on the Education Authority Website; www.eani.org.uk
