Years

Flying Start

Flying Start is our brand new, purpose built provision for 2 year olds. It is the latest addition to our highly successful Early Years department, which prides itself on giving children the confidence and independence to ‘Do it myself’.

From thoughtfully designed room to direct access on to an outside provision, your child will have a high quality, calm and rich environment which will allow them to be nurtured, happy and developed in all areas of the Early Years. Flying Start is open from 7.45am until 6pm, during term time only.

Funded and paid places are offered subject to availability.

Children can start Nursery from their third birthday, if a space is available, accessing morning or afternoon sessions. This offer can be taken up using the government’s ‘free 15 hours’ initiative. Additional morning or afternoon sessions can also be booked at a daily cost of £14.85 per session, allowing your child to attend from 8.45 until 3.15pm up to 5 days per week.

In addition to this, for working families in England an extra 15 hours a week of childcare – so 30 hours in all is offered, allowing your child to attend from 8.45am until 3.15pm 5 days a week, term time. A charge of £4 is made daily, inclusive of a free lunch.
