Early Learning and Childcare

Early Learning and Childcare is available for five days per week – term time. Each session is six hours usually aligned to the primary school day e.g. 9am to 3pm (+/- 15 mins)

Children are provided with a healthy snack and a 2 course lunch during each session.

Benefits

Young children learn new things every single day no matter where they are but we know that spending time in a high quality early learning and childcare setting can really boost their all-round development and learning.
