Fees
Council funding is available for all children from the start of the first funding period after their third birthday. The funding entitles each child to a specified number of hours per term of free childcare. Please speak with a member of staff if you are unsure.
For those children who are not yet eligible for funding, the Pre-School fees are
• £8.00 per 3 hour session ( 9am-12pm or 12pm -3pm)
For children old enough to receive council funding, the cost of any additional non-funded sessions is
• £9.00 per session ( 9am-12pm or 12pm -3pm)
For care outside these school hours, the fees are
• £3.50 per hour for Breakfast club (8am-9am, incl. cereal / toast)
• £3.50 per hour (min. 1 hr) for After-School club (3pm – 6pm, a light snack is available at an extra £1, this would be included in the monthly bill)
Fees are payable monthly.
The fees are reviewed annually in July.
Fees continue to be payable if a child is absent through ill health or holidays. In case of prolonged absence, parents should consult the supervisor about reduced fees. Each child’s attendance at the group is conditional upon continued payment of any necessary fees.
A separate Hardship Fund has been set aside supported by the Nuttall Trust, to assist families in need*. Please see the supervisor for more information.
