We run lunch club sessions each day for 1 hour following our morning session. These are chargeable at £3.50 each day unless covered by funding. Ad-hoc lunch sessions are £5.50.
Fees are £16.50 per half day session (3hrs) or £33.00 per full day (6 hrs) for 3/4 year olds and £23.00 per 3hr morning session and £44.00 per full day (6hr) for 2 year olds.
All children receive 15hrs of funding from the term after their third Birthday (commencing 1STSeptember/1STJanuary/1STApril) and from September 2025 most 2, 3 & 4year olds will be eligible for up to 30 hours of funding from the term after their second birthday. A 9-month-old funding code can often be used for children who are just 2 for the term before 2 year old funding is accessed. Please visit www.beststartinlife.gov.uk to check eligibility, or contact us if you have any questions regarding funding.

We are able to enrol new children to start throughout the year from September up until April.

Each child’s attendance at the group is conditional upon continued payment of any necessary fees/ Nursery funding.
