FAQ

Spots are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority given to current Apple Tree families when enrolment opens in February.

If you feel that Apple Tree is the right fit for your family, we recommend filling out our Application Form as early as possible — ideally during the semester before your desired start date. This helps us keep you informed about availability and increases your chance of securing a spot.

Our admission process is continuous throughout the year, and we’re always happy to welcome new families whenever space allows. This means you are more than welcome to join us during the school year. To check current availability, please email us at info@appletree-kindergarten.hu.

We normally offer places for the full academic year (September–June), and the school contribution is set accordingly. However, if you know you’ll need a shorter enrolment period, please email us at info@appletree-kindergarten.hu with your preferred start and end dates. We’ll be happy to provide you with a time-proportionate offer.

We’re so glad you’re considering joining the Apple Tree community!
Here’s how it works:

1. Fill out our Application Form or email us with any questions.
2. If a place is available, we’ll send a Confirmation of Application email with your payment details. For every new child enrolling at Apple Tree, an online application form must be completed and submitted to our office. Once the application has been received and confirmed by e-mail, a once-only, non-refundable registration fee of HUF 150,000 becomes payable. Please note that applications are processed only after the registration fee has been received. Enrolment is open throughout the school year, subject to the availability of places. The registration fee does NOT apply to returning children and their newly enrolled siblings if both siblings are enrolled for the same period. 
3. Once your enrolment is confirmed, you’ll receive more information about your child’s group and what to prepare for their first day at Apple Tree. 15 days after a child is offered a place at Apple Tree, 10% of the school contribution needs to be paid (non-refundable, counted toward total school contribution).

We would be delighted to welcome you for a personal tour of Apple Tree! Visiting us in person is a wonderful way to experience our loving and nurturing atmosphere and to see our programs in action.

Our tours usually take place during the morning hours, when you can observe the children’s daily activities and get a real sense of our learning environment. If you would prefer a different time, we’ll do our best to find a slot that suits your schedule.

During the tour, we’ll show you around our classrooms and garden, share details about our educational approach, and happily answer any questions you may have. Tours typically last about one hour.

We would be delighted! Having your child with you helps them explore our atmosphere and classrooms, and it often becomes a lovely first memory that supports their settling-in period later on.
