Each child will be given time to settle in and everyone is always very welcoming. If your child has any additional needs of any kind please do inform us so we can ensure we can cater to their needs and ensure their time with us is comfortable and enjoyable.

Each session is 5 hours and will consist of- social time and activities, educational learning and fun, Indoor and outdoor activities and movement, lunch, snack time and craft time. We have access to outdoor space as well.

Every day will include some indoor and outdoor activities in all weathers so please please ensure you bring your child a spare change of clothes as they may get wet and muddy in the morning and we do not want them to sit in wet clothes and we cannot cater for this. If possible pack some waterproofs would be the best idea and a change of clothes a we know what the weather likes to be unpredictable.

We will offer snacks and drinks throughout the day, fresh fruit, a biscuit, water or milk and we will bake and make most days, children can bring their own snacks but please do not bring in lunch unless there are specific dietary requirements as being involved in making lunch and learning about healthy eating we feel is important for the children.
