About the Nursery

The Nursery, part of our Foundation Stage Unit, is run by our Nursery Lead and support staff, who work skilfully alongside the children, developing their confidence, independence and social skills.

We work closely with parents and families, creating strong partnerships that ensure children are happy, settle quickly, make excellent progress and develop a love of learning.

The school operates flexible hours to meet individual needs from 8am-4:30pm, Monday to Friday, during term times. This is made possible with our daily Breakfast Club and After School Club.

Please have a look at our Nursery Handbook for more information.

Nursery session times

Morning session: 8:55am -12:00pm

Afternoon session: 12:00 – 3:05pm (includes lunchtime)

We also offer Breakfast Club 8:00 – 8:55am and After School Club 3:05 – 4:30pm to meet individual needs.

Fees

Your child is entitled to 15 hours funded childcare (5 sessions) through Early Years Entitlement Funding, starting the term after your child’s 3rd birthday. If you require any additional paid for sessions for your child, a session is charged at £15.50 per session, £31 for the full day.

Please refer to St Andrew’s Church School Nursery Charging Policy for further details.

A hot school lunch can be provided for £2.90 per day if it is booked and paid for on ParentPay.

If your family is on a low income, you may be entitled to free school meals by benefit for all children in school. The quickest way to check if you are eligible is via this link:

A charge of £30 is made for snack and cookery ingredients per year (pro rata based on sessions attended and start date) and is paid for on Parentpay.

Wraparound Nursery Care

Breakfast Club is £3.50 per session and must be booked and paid for at least 2 days in advance of when the session is needed, on  ParentPay. The club will be staffed appropriately and food purchased so we will be unable to offer a refund if your child does not attend the booked sessions.

After School Club costs £7 per session and will need to be booked and paid for at least 3 days in advance on ParentPay. If you wish to book an ad-hoc or short-notice session, please contact the school office. We will not be able to offer a refund if your child does not attend the booked sessions unless this is due to illness.

Book directly through your ParentPay account

If you also have children in Reception to Year 6, you can book their wraparound care here.
