Admissions

Registration

To apply for a place, please use the Gilah Registration Form.

Once you have registered your child, we will note their date of birth, together with the date of application, shul membership and whether siblings have attended. Your child cannot start until after their 2nd birthday, and the earliest start date is dependent onhow
full the nursery is at that time, so may not be until several weeks or months after he/she turns 2.

This will initially be for two or three mornings or afternoons per week, progressing to four afternoons or five mornings when a space is available.

In the event of the nursery being oversubscribed, priority is given to children of Borehamwood and Elstree Synagogue members and to those who have/have had siblings at Gilah. Date of application will also be taken into account.

Please read theGilah Rules and Regulations.
