Non-resident Nursery Students

Children must turn four by December 31 of the current school year and live with their legal guardian within the boundaries of Winnipeg School Division in order to be registered for Nursery. The entire cost is funded by WSD via the education special levy on property taxes. Non-Resident students are not allowed to access the Nursery Program without paying a non-resident fee. The fee is payable by the parent/legal guardian. Please contact by email enrolmentsection@wsd1.org or by telephone 204-789-0489 for fees and procedure.

If a student registers and begins a nursery program in September as a resident and moves outside of WSD during the school year, fees are payable for the remainder of the school year (effective from the move date). Please contact non-resident clerk at 204-789-0489, or by email to enrolmentsection@wsd1.org.
