"I am a Venture Child"
We are committed to growing our provision so that we can reach more children in the South Hams but we must do this mindfully, and are cautious to ensure we have the right people in place to continue providing the highest possible standards before we expand our group size.

Our registration process
What happens next
As soon as we have received a completed registration form along with the registration fee, we will email you to confirm your child's place/starting date. If a place is not currently available, we will contact you to let you know that your child has been placed on our waiting list and we will give you an indication of the most likely available starting date for your child and when you can expect to hear about allocation. In the event that we are unable to offer your child a place before they start school, we will refund the registration fee in full.
​
Places
We have capacity for 18 children per day at Hope Cove, and 28 children per day at Kitley Farm.
​
Number of days
Following a review of our practice and resources, it has become evident that the most beneficial outcome in terms of the child's experience, the staff's relationship with that child, and the overall group cohesion occurs when children attend Venture for at least two sessions per week. With that being said, a place for one day per week will only be offered if there is a plan in place and availability for this to be increased to two days per week once the child turns three and has attended Venture for one term.
Allocation/intake
There are three terms in each school year and we aim for children to join us at the start of one of these terms. Children must be 2.5 years before the term starts. The majority of children will be allocated a place for the beginning of the school year. These places will be offered in June.
