Nursery charges 

We charge £3 daily to cover the cost of lunchtime supervision for children who are eligible for 30 hours places (5 full days). Government funding costs the 2 nursery sessions (8:40-11:40 and 12:30 - 3:30).

There are no other charges for nursery.  

 

As places can be limited we strongly advise you to register your child (in the school office) as soon as possible. We will write to you when it is nearly time for your child to start in Nursery and give you more details and information. If we are not able to offer a place we will keep your child’s name on a waiting list so we can offer a place as soon as one becomes available.
