Nursery provision is available to children the term after they turn three years old. Our nursery currently operates four mornings a week from 9am – 12noon. Parents and carers are encouraged to register their child at an early age, ideally in their first or second year, as this allows us to distribute information about our nursery and open days.
The government currently funds 15 hours of early years provision at no charge to the parents/carers; these are broken down to three hour sessions here at our nursery.

You can register your initial interest in our nursery either by emailing Mrs Kemp (see Contact Us), by phoning the school on 01653 658313 or please come in. Registration of interest does not mean that you have to make a commitment; it just helps us to provide you with useful and up to date information.

If you send an email registering your interest, please include the following information:
•Child’s full name, date of birth and address
•Parents/carers’ name, address and contact numbers
