Children can attend nursery from the September following their 3rd birthday. Having a place in a nursery class at Christ the Word Catholic School does not guarantee your child a place in a reception class at the school, and you will need to make a new application for reception class.
For children born between 1 September 2021 and 31 August 2022, you can apply for a nursery place from 23 September 2024 and the closing date is 17 February 2025.
If you’ve already applied, we’ll let you know the outcome by 6 May 2025.
You can apply via the Denbighshire County website here or directly with us using the form below.
If you’re applying after the closing date, your application will be processed after all the on-time requests have been dealt with. Late applications will be considered together, regardless of date received, against the oversubscription criteria detailed in the Denbighshire Schools guide.

Christ the Word Catholic School will build on the ethos, success and achievements at the core of education provision across the Diocese. It will be a strong and nurturing learning community.
This fantastic new school will help us achieve our goal of providing modern facilities across Denbighshire that further enhance pupils’ learning.
I am delighted that the partnership of Welsh Government, Denbighshire County Council and the Catholic Church will deliver a brand new school to serve the families of Rhyl and the surrounding parishes.
