Finances
Our morning sessions run from 9:00 to 12:00 Monday to Friday, term time only. We also offer a Lunch Club from 12:00 to 13:00 and afternoon sessions until 15.00 hours.
Fees & Funding
- £21 per morning session for 2-year-olds
- Free morning sessions for funded 3 and 4-year-olds + a voluntary fee for consumables
- £7 for our Lunch Club.
Afternoon sessions are available until 15.00 for children who attend the morning sessions. We accept 30 hour funding for these children.
Further information available on request.
Our fees are currently £21 per session, payable in advance at the beginning of each term. Two-year-old children normally start on 2 sessions a week (the minimum) and subsequently increase the number of days. Lunch Club is currently £7 per session.
Small Print
If you are unable to pay the full fee in advance, we will accept half-termly payments, beginning at the start of each half-term. No discounts or refunds are available for holiday or sickness absence, special events that replace the normal session (usually held on a Friday), or closure due to severe weather conditions. Please also be aware that sessions are not transferable - an absent child cannot give their session to another child or swap it for another day.
Free Early Education
Children become eligible for free sessions in the term following their 3rd birthday. More precisely, they must be 3 before the 1st of the first month of term: - to qualify for the Spring term they must be 3 before the 1st of January, for the Summer term before the 1st of April, and for the Autumn term before the 1st of September.
So we do need to see your child’s birth certificate. Without this, or similar evidence, we cannot claim your funding. With it, all we will need is your occasional signature on a Parent Declaration Form.
Please also note that, to cover the cost of the morning snack and other consumables, we ask funded parents for a voluntary contribution of £1.50 per session.
30 Hours
We also accept the 30 hours funding. To see if you are eligible, please see the Childcare Choices website for more details.
Tax-Free Childcare
If you are eligible to pay your fees using this method, you will need to sign up for a Tax-Free Childcare account, as described on the Childcare Choices website.
