Government funding covers core childcare and education, but extras such as breakfast, healthy snacks, special activities, or outings are charged separately as a consumable charge. We believe children thrive when they have a wide range of fun and engaging experiences. That’s why we offer activities like sports sessions and French lessons as part of our provision. To continue offering these enriching opportunities, we include a £1.00 per hour voluntary consumables cost. Parents and carers who choose not to contribute will be offered alternative options.
Children will need to bring a packed lunch, or we can provide a healthy packed lunch for £2.00
