In our Nursery class (Butterflies) we now offer both 15 hour and 30 hour funded and paid places. We also offer wrap around care both before and after school. 

Children can join our Nursery from the term following their 3rd birthday. 

All children over the age of 3 are entitled to 15 hours of childcare (known as the Universal Offer).  In addition, some families may be entitled to an additional 15 hours (known as the Extended Offer), providing they meet the Government's eligibility criteria.
