FAQs
What are your opening times?
We are open Monday – Friday from 8:00am – 2:30pm, apart from Wednesdays, which are 8:00am – 2:00pm.
We are closed on bank holidays, half terms and summer holidays.
Can we reserve a place at the pre-school?
Yes you can. You will need to book a tour with the manager and complete and return the Registration Form and your place will be reserved.
Will my child be able to sleep during the day?
Many children, particularly under the age of 3 years, will require a sleep during the day. The pre-school has ample sleeping facilities and children are offered a rest period during the day.
We are happy to offer your child a sleep time but we cannot make children sleep. Children who do not sleep will be provided with other restful activities to occupy them.
How long should I keep my child away from nursery if they are unwell?
Common colds and coughs are not a problem, apart from if the child has a high temperature with it, in which case they should stay at home until the temperature goes down without medication. There is a full list of potential illnesses and the amount of time children should be kept away from nursery, but the most common are as follows.
Loose nappies or diarrhea – 48 hours or until toileting returns to normal.
Temperature above 38 degrees – 24 hours or until temperature returns to normal without the need for medication.
Conjunctivitis – 24 hours after drops have been administered.
