Sessions and Fees - Flying Start Nursery and Pre-School

We are open 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday all year round apart from the Christmas break and Bank Holidays. We offer 2 sessions a day, 8am to 1pm (to include morning snack and two course lunch) and 1pm to 6pm (to include afternoon snack and tea). Please call us to discuss options for school hour days or term time only attendance if that is what you need.

Fees are payable in advance and the prices are shown below. We offer some funded 2 year old places in the toddler room and all places in the preschool room can be 15 or 30 hours government funded. We also accept Working Parent Entitlements. Our terms and conditions can be found in the info and resources section.
