Hours & Attendance

What are the session times?

  • Sessional day care from 9am - 4pm.

  • Half Day 9am - 1pm or 8am - 1pm (Available for 2-3 yr olds only when attending one additional full day)

  • Full day care from 8am - 5.30pm. This includes breakfast and an end of day tea.

    (We remain open for 51 weeks of the year with a Christmas break).

Is there a minimum attendance?

To fully benefit from Forest School and all we have to offer in the setting, we ask that parents/carers commit to:

  • 2-3 yr olds: 1.5 ‘sessional’ days per week

  • 3-4 yr olds: Two ‘sessional’ days per week

This will ensure your child can become part of our community of learners and fully engage with their learning. It also means that there is not a long ‘gap’ across the week for your child to access Nursery, enabling them to settle well and form a strong key person bond.


Do you offer funding?

We offer the Working Family Funding for 18 MONTH, 2 & 3 year olds.
