Day Care

Day care is an extension of the Pre-School/Nursery for parents who work, have appointments or just need some extra time without their children for many reasons. The Pre-School will continue as normal from 9.00am until 12pm and 12pm until 3pm. Children not attending the Pre-School can use the day-care facility i.e. from 0700 – 0900 and in the afternoon from 12/3pm - 1800 during term times and all-day during holiday periods. Throughout the day we offer integrated care and learning whether in Day Care, Nursery or Pre- School. Children are given the opportunity to rest if necessary, within a safe, caring environment. They will be given opportunities to explore the outdoor area and take part in numerous exciting activities that will promote their development and learning through play. At breakfast we offer healthy cereals, toast and milk for free; in addition, snacks are provided free of charge in the morning and late afternoon. Normally, outside of COVID-19 restrictions, we would operate a kitchen serving freshly cooked meals for lunch and tea. However, we regret that this service is currently suspended but under continuous review. When the COVID-19 situation sufficiently improves, we will look to resume this excellent facility. Currently we ask that you bring in a packed lunch/tea; there is a facility to store these. Food can be heated if you would like to send in cooked meals. We send home a daily diary sheet to inform you of your child’s day and what they have eaten.
