This will have 44 places for three- and four-year-olds.
Key features include:
- 5 days a week, Monday-Friday, term time. 15 or 30 hours a week fully funded by government, with the ability to top up.
- Morning Session: 8.30am-11.30am, afternoon Session: 12:30pm-3.30pm, full day: 8.30am-2.30pm (including a free hot lunch) can top up 1 hour to 3:30pm.
- Wraparound care designed around the working day of parents, 7.30am-6:00pm.
- Brand-new facilities for exclusive use by nursery children, with access to a covered external area.
- A caring, safe, happy and truly enriching environment that builds on the experience of the Harris Federation where 100% of our nurseries are judged by Ofsted to be good with 91% Outstanding.
