Our Nursery

Our Ofsted Outstanding Nursery is for children who are nearly four years old, and is held in its own purpose built building on the school site.  It is an educational based nursery led by an experienced and qualified teacher and well qualified support staff.

We admit children who will be four years old during the academic year beginning the 1st of September.

The pattern of attendance can be a combination of any of the morning and/or lunch and/or afternoon sessions, on any of the school days in a week.  Children staying over lunchtime can bring a packed lunch from home or you can pay for a school meal.  At least 15 hours in nursery is necessary for children to get the best out of their nursery experience. If you wish for your chid to attend for longer then more hours are available either to purchase or through 30 hours funding, if you are eligible. Please contact the school office if you have any questions about your child’s nursery hours.

Once you have been allocated your pattern of attendance, we request that you continue with this for a term unless there are very exceptional circumstances.

Information about Nursery admissions can be found on our Admissions page.

The session times are:

Mornings 8.30 am – 11.30 am
Lunch 11.30 am – 12.30 pm
Afternoons 12.30 pm – 3.30 pm

Please note that your child must attend for the whole session (3 hours) and can only stay for lunch on days when they are in all day or for the morning or for the afternoon sessions. We do operate a flexible drop off between 8.30am and 9.00am and pick up between 3.00pm and 3.30pm to enable you to pick up and drop off children in the main school.30 hours free childcare logo

Everyone is entitled to 15 hours free provision and some families are entitled to 30 hours free provision.  For more details see  www.childcarechoices.gov.uk .  If you would like more than 15 hours for your child but are not eligible for the 30 hours funding, you can request the additional hours at a charge of £5.10 per hour ( The rate is reviewed and increased in line with inflation annually in September).
