Dinner Time
From September 2023, we will no longer be serving cooked meals at lunchtime. This is due to rising costs and a lack of funding for nursery schools. Instead, we will be asking parents to send their child to nursery with a packed lunch if they are staying over lunchtime.
We ask that parents send in a balanced packed lunch for their child (some tips for your child's lunchbox are available in the document at the bottom of this page). Please make sure that you think about the amount of food that you send – do not send in too much. There is no need to send in a drink, as to comply with requirements in the Early Years Statutory Framework, we will be providing children with a drink of water. The school has also put in place a ‘no nuts’ policy and has additional guidance on how we will deal with food allergies, that children may have.
Parents are asked to put their child’s lunch in a named lunchbox. This will be kept on a lunch trolley until it is time to eat. Children will not be able to access it at any other time, so please do not put any additional snacks in – we will still provide a snack through each session. We will also make sure that your child’s rubbish will go back into their lunchbox, so that you can see what they have eaten.
If you have any questions, then please contact Moira or Peter.
Wrap Around Care
Breakfast Session
We run a breakfast session every day from 7.30am to 8.30am. From September 2023, the cost of this session will be £5.85, regardless of what time your child arrives. This hour can be taken from your 30 hours entitlement, if you have a valid eligibility code and your child is not already accessing over 30 hours funding.
Additional Hours
We offer parents the opportunity to buy additional nursery hours to access a longer day or a lunchtime session. From September 2023 the cost per hour will be £5.85. These sessions can complement the morning or afternoon education sessions, and are allocated dependent on availability of hours and considering the needs of the child.
E.g. if a child attends a morning session, they could access another 4 hours at a cost of £23.40 (4 x £5.85(care) to make a full day from 8.30am to 3.30pm. Alternatively, these hours can be taken from your 30 hours entitlement, if you have a valid eligibility code and your child is not already accessing over 30 hours funding.

Although we don't have an after school club on site, our children can access the club at the Glebe Junior School which runs until 6.00pm every day at a cost of £10.50 per day.
