Lower Prep Entry

Admissions for: Reception | Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3

We believe that the best way to get a true flavour of life at Mount Kelly is to visit when the children are busy with their normal school day. A tour of the school will be offered during which we will show you around and arrange a meeting with our Head of Prep, Mrs Tabb.

A Warm Welcome to the Start of Their Journey

We know that choosing your child’s first school is a big moment. We’re here to make it feel exciting, supportive, and completely personal.

Many parents prefer to visit Mount Kelly on their own first, to get a feel for the environment and meet the team. This is always welcomed, and we will tailor the visit to answer all your questions. When you are ready, we will invite your child for a taster session, a joyful day (or part-day) spent alongside children in their year group, following a normal school timetable. It’s the perfect way for your child to experience life at Mount Kelly: the classrooms, the playtimes, the smiles, the stories, all at their own pace.

Every child is different, and we will work closely with you to create a settling-in process that suits your family and helps your child feel right at home.

Applications can be made to the Admissions Office at any point during the year prior to entry. Visits and taster days are available year-round. Just get in touch with our friendly team to start the conversation.
