Muddy Boots Nursery Waiting List Now Closed

Tuesday, 05 February 2019 15:34

Dear Parents and Carers,

We have had an overwhelming number of parents/carers submitting applications for a place at our Mudchute Nursery, over 100 applicants! Sadly due to these numbers we are forced to close the waiting list again immediately. While of course we would love to welcome everyone, we have limited spaces available in our nursery and do not wish to give false hopes to parents/carers knowing full well that a space will likely not become available for them.

We encourage parents/carers to continue a relationship with Mudchute through our farm and events, we are looking forward to seeing you all at our half term and Easter celebrations.

Warm regards,

Mudchute Team
