FREE Childcare

From September 2016, all children aged between 3 and 5½ years are entitled to FREE Childcare for 3 hours a day, morning or afternoon session, 5 days a week! The child can attend Preschool or Montessori or combine the two (example: first FREE year of Preschool, followed by a FREE year of Montessori, etc.). No hidden extras, no weekly supplement!

Notes:

  1. The scheme introduces Rolling Enrollment whereby a child may take up their free place on any one of 3 dates provided they have turned 3 years old before their given start date - these dates are September 1st, January 1st and April 1st.
  2. In order to avail of a FREE place, the child must be younger than 5½ years old at the end of the coming academic year (end of June).
