More Info
To secure your child’s funded place at the preschool we would require a £50.00 holding fee. The holding fee will be credited to your fee account on your child’s starting date.
When booking a place for your child, who is unfunded or partially funded we require the payment of a six-week deposit of the sessions which are unfunded. The deposit is non-refundable should your circumstances change prior to commencement of your child’s sessions. The deposit will be returned on leaving, providing your account is up to date and written notice of six week’s has been received.
Terms and conditions do apply which are available on the registration form.
