Children aged from two years and six months up to compulsory school age are eligible for a place.

Documents you will need

The child's birth certificate and family status certificate will be obtained automatically by the municipality — parents do not need to source these themselves.

How to apply

Both forms — the application form and the child health card — are available to download from the Apokoronas municipality website (apokoronas.gov.gr) as editable Word files or PDFs.

  • Subject line: "Αίτηση για εγγραφή στον Δημοτικό Παιδικό Σταθμό Βάμου"

Once received, the application will be logged and forwarded to the nursery. The nursery teacher will then call the parents to arrange an in-person appointment.

Parents can also send the health card form directly to their paediatrician by email for the doctor to complete, print, and sign.
