Nursery Session Times
Choice of Sessions
We offer a choice of part-time or full-time (funded or self-funded) places to reflect the variety of childcare needs amongst parents in our area.
Our nursery operates both morning and afternoon sessions, as well as offering a Lunchtime Club.
Morning session: 8.30am - 11.30am
Lunchtime Club: 11.30am - 12.15pm
Afternoon session: 12.15pm - 3.15pm
Families can select the sessions that best suit their requirements (subject to capacity and with a minimum of 15 hours per week). The 15 hours can be split over 5 mornings or, alternatively, into 2 full days and 1 morning.
Our Lunchtime Club is chargeable at a fixed daily rate which covers 45 minutes per day of childcare plus the provision of a hot school meal. Where children are attending both the morning and afternoon sessions for a particular day, our expectation is that they will attend the Lunchtime Club. If you would instead prefer to collect your child at the end of the morning session and bring them back for the start of the afternoon session, please contact the school office to discuss this option. Additional Lunchtime Club spaces will also be available for those children only attending the morning session who wish to extend their session by 45 minutes and have a hot school meal.
Please confirm your choice of provision when applying so we can check availability.
All places are term time only. The nursery is closed for all bank holidays and staff INSET days.
