Starting School

If your child is due to start school next September, then why not come and visit us. We shall be holding an open morning on Saturday 9th November for Parents to see inside St. Peter’s and hear from Mrs Maurice, our Headteacher and meet our EYFS Team.  The morning will give you an insight into how St. Peter’s curriculum design and school environment enables all children to thrive and achieve their potential inside and out of the classroom.  We shall be open between 10.00am and 12.00pm, with talks from Mrs Maurice at 10.15am and 11.15am.  Please just come along. Children are invited too.

Alternatively, if you are unable to make the morning, then you are invited to come to one of our other sessions – Wednesday 13th November at 2.00pm or Friday 15th November at 9.30am.  To attend either of these please register your interest by emailing office@stpetershenfield.org.uk.

To place an application please follow https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/education-children-and-families/schools-and-colleges/school-places/apply/starting-school-places/ If St. Peter’s is one of your preferred choices, then please could we also ask you to complete a Supplementary Information Form. This is then used to support your application and to aid us in offering places, as we are a voluntary aided school and thereby control part of the admission process.
