Our 2-year-olds have their own homebase – a room all to themselves - and an outdoor space too!

Children can attend mornings (8.45 am – 11.45 am) or all day (8.45am – 2.45 pm). Children need to bring their own packed lunch if they are staying all day.

Some families may be entitled to 15 hours, free, early years education and care. Please visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk to find out if your 2-year-old child is eligible. If you are not entitled to free funding, your 2-year-old can still attend our nursery for a cost of £16.50 per 3-hour session.

We also have a breakfast and afterschool club so we are able to offer childcare from 7.45am to 5.15pm to wrap around your core sessions.

Our Weekly Learning Rhythm & Attendance

At our maintained nursery school, we plan our learning on a weekly cycle. This helps children enjoy a wide range of experiences — from developing early literacy and maths skills to building confidence, independence and friendships.

We know family life can be busy, and we are proud to offer a flexible attendance pattern to support our community. However, we want to be open with families about what works best for children’s learning and development.

To help your child get the most from nursery, we recommend:

• 15-hour children: Attending every morning, Monday–Friday
• 30-hour children: Attending 8:45am – 2:45pm every day

Children who attend every day often:

⭐ Experience the full range of the week’s learning activities
⭐ Build strong, secure friendships with their peers
⭐ Feel part of the group and more confident in routines
⭐ Make greater progress in communication, social skills and independence
⭐ Settle more quickly and feel more emotionally secure
⭐ Enjoy a consistent pattern that supports school readiness

Of course, if you need to use your hours more flexibly, that’s absolutely fine — we understand every family is different. We simply want to let you know that because our planning runs weekly, children who attend fewer days might miss some planned activities or experiences.

Thank you for working with us to help your child grow, learn and thrive. We are here to support your family and give your child the very best start to their learning journey.
