All year and Term Time Bookings
Fee’s include am and pm snacks, a hot lunch, and tea where appropriate. Early drop offs and late finishes can be added onto short day booking (subject to availability). We’re open for 50 weeks of the year, excluding bank holidays and inset days. The nursery closes for one week between Christmas and New Year and the week containing the August bank holiday in the summer (these two weeks are charged but discounted by 50%).
Fee’s are due in advance, and we issue invoices mid-month for the following month. Unfortunately there can be no refunds for sickness or holidays.

The government provides between 15 and 30 funded hours for eligible 3-year-olds, funding terms start in January, April and September, the term after their third birthday (for a total of 38 weeks a year). We make funding available for 7.5 hours each day, the hourly rate is refunded automatically. Charges for food and extras (not covered by government funding) will still apply and are shown on your invoice separately. We can spread funding for children taking three or more full days (8-6).
