Other charges

EYFS Pot

We kindly ask for a small donation of 50p per week towards the EYFS Pot.  With this money the EYFS team plan and arrange a range of exciting activities in the classroom to enhance learning even further.  This could be anything from sunflower seeds, rice, spaghetti, soap flakes or even ingredients to do some baking. 

Late charge

If your child is picked up 5 minutes or later, a £5 late fee late fee will be issued.  If it is the first occasion of late collection and the parent/carer has notified the school that they are held up then no charge will be made for the supervision of the child.
