The government offers a range of free childcare options to support families. Depending on your circumstances, you may be eligible for 15 or 30 hours of funded childcare for 3- and 4-year-olds. Additional support is also available through Tax-Free Childcare and childcare vouchers. These schemes are designed to make early education more accessible and affordable for working families.
Our Nursery offers a variety of sessions for 3- and 4-year-olds
•FEEE 15hours – for all children the term after their child’s third birth day ( 5 x 3 hour session AM or PM)
•FEEE 15 hours or 30 hours – for families who meet the government criteria as working parents from your child’s third birthday (5 x 6 hour sessions)

Due to the importance of routines, procedures, and attainment, it is vitally important that your child arrives on time and attends every day.
Please note fees, where applicable, are charged even if your child does not attend.
You are also able to ‘top-up’ your child’s sessions, subject to availability and charges.

As a Catholic school, we are committed to making high-quality early education accessible to all. We aim to offer the government-funded 15 or 30 hours without any compulsory top-up fees. To support this, families have the option to send a packed lunch and collect their child at 2:35pm, ensuring there are no additional charges, apart from a voluntary contribution towards snacks.
