Ruislip Gardens Primary introduced the option of full time (30 hours) nursery provision from September 2020. We also offer the option of 15 hours morning or afternoon nursery sessions for families which do not wish to take up or are not eligible for full time hours.

Applications for Nursery are made directly to the school. Nursery intakes take place in September, January and April. Children are accepted into the Nursery the term after they turn three years of age.

Nursery sessions will run as follows:

• Morning only session of three hours of childcare: 8.30am to 11.30am
• Afternoon only session of three hours of childcare: 12.00pm to 3.00pm
• Full Day session: 8.30am – 3.00pm
