As of September 2024, fees are set at £18.50 per child, per session. Please note that session fees are reviewed and subject to change throughout the year.  Fees are invoiced and payable in advance as agreed.  We will not charge fees if we are closed but all fees are payable when we are open even if your child is absent.

​

Children staying for lunch as agreed will need to bring their own lunch.  We currently charge £5.50 per lunch stay to cover staffing.   Those accessing the Extended Funding Scheme between 15 and 30 hours will be able to claim the lunch fee as funded hours (see below).

​

Parents of children aged 3-4 years can access free childcare hours, subject to meeting criteria.  The universal funding entitlement is currently 15 hours per week. The funding period commences at the start of the term following the child's 3rd birthday.  This funding is applied for by the preschool following verification and information provided by the parent/carer.

​

Some parents of children aged 3-4 years may be eligible for up to 30 hours funded childcare per week.  To apply and check eligibility, please visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk
