Our Childcare Service

Open 48 weeks a year, we offer flexible childcare for all 2-11 year olds.

Breakfast Club 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and sets the children up for a busy day of learning at pre-school or school. We offer a healthy breakfast and fun and games to get those brain cells ready for the day ahead. 


Transport to local schools via private transport can be arranged.

Snug Bugs Nursery 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

We offer an all-day term time nursery for children over two years old. You can choose the hours within the day that best suit your child's needs. 


Because we are Ofsted registered, you can claim back some of your childcare costs if you receive tax credits. 


We also provide 15 hours of KCC Education Funded hours to every 3-4 year old (or 30 hours for eligible 3-4 year olds) and Free for Twos funding for eligible 2-year olds.  For further information, visit here. 

After School Club 3 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

After a busy day at pre-school or school, we help children unwind by playing outside in our spacious, secure gardens or playing inside with fun, games and craft activities. 


We offer a healthy two-course cooked meal by prior-arrangement. 


Transport from local schools via private transport can be arranged. 

Holiday Club

For all children aged 2-11 years old, we offer a holiday club during school holidays.
