Nursery

The school has its own Nursery and we admit children to our Nursery in the term after they turn 3.

We offer the free 15 hours funding for three and four year olds for five x 3 hour sessions per week, taken either as:

  • Daily mornings (8.45 – 11.45am)
  • Daily afternoons (12.15 – 3.15pm)

Information for 30 hours a week sessions

A limited number of full day (30 hours a week) spaces are available, which will incur an additional cost for the time period of (2.45-3.15pm) which must be paid privately by parents as it is not part of the 30-hour place. Alternatively, parents can opt to take their child home from 2.45pm; Parents are required to advise the school in advance for the regular collection time.

The cost of the 2.45pm-3.15pm session is £3 per day for the childcare.

During lunchtime, if you would like your child to have a hot school dinner an additional charge of £2.65 is required, otherwise you are required to provide a healthy packed lunch for your child.

If your child is accessing a 30 hour place, which is being funded by parents, then you will need to pay for the 2.45-3.15pm session at £3 and the additional Nursery session at £18.

Please note that no refunds will be given for sickness or holidays.   

Lunches need to be paid for in advance or by 9.30am on the day, additional sessions and the 2.45-3.15pm club MUST be paid monthly in advance via Arbor or via Childcare Vouchers. 

Please note that charges are reviewed on an annual basis.
