The fees are £15.00 per 3hr fee paying session, payable weekly in advance. Fees are still payable if children are ill, absent without notice for a period of time or if they are on holiday. If your child has to be absent for a long period of time, please speak to the Supervisor.
Every three and four year old in England is currently entitled to 15 hours of free early learning per week, unless they are eligible for the thirty hour funding entitlement.
We are also able to offer funding for some 2 year old children – please speak to Helen regarding eligibility.
For those eligible for Government Funding, it is possible to use two Government Funded Sessions to achieve a full-day session, but please remember you are only entitled to 15 hours per week (free). Any Pre-school hours above the 15 Government Funded will be charged at the above rate.
We ask for a payment of £30.00 as contribution per academic year to the cost of providing healthy eating snacks for your child. At Kiddiwinks we strive to provide a variety of fruit, vegetables and carbohydrate to promote children's experience of a full range of healthy food.
Every week we provide a cooking experience for the children. This may included cooking within the setting session, as well as inviting parents into the setting for cooking demonstrations and cooking together opportunities with your child. We ask for a small donation of £15.00 for the academic year to help us provide the ingredients.
GENERAL
We regular practice an evacuation procedure to ensure the children are familiar and safe within our environment.
We send weekly email updates to all significant adults to ensure they are kept informed and updated.
Our desire is that you and your child enjoy your time with us. We are always ready and willing to talk with you about your ideas, views and questions.
