Opening Times
We are a Term-time only setting.
Monday - Friday

Our opening hours are subject to demand, so we encourage all families to continue communicating their needs for hours of childcare.
Although we don't have an official Breakfast Club, we will always have food available if children come in without having had breakfast. Likewise, we will always prepare something for tea for children with us until 4.30pm.
