Things to Know

Attending funded hours only?

If you elect to attend for funded hours only, a consumables charge applies for meals taken during those sessions: Breakfast £2 • Snack £2 • Lunch £4.50 • Tea £4.

Attending outside term time?

Government funding applies term time only. If you wish to use the nursery outside of term time, the regular daily rate applies. For ad-hoc attendance during half terms, the ad-hoc daily rate applies — please see the fee schedule above.

Monthly invoice amounts may vary

Invoices are based on the number of week days in each calendar month, so the total will differ slightly from month to month. The daily rate remains the same — only the number of chargeable days changes.
