A typical day

We’re open both term time and throughout school holidays.

Mondays & Fridays: 8.00am-5.30pm
Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays: 8.00am-6.00pm

  • 08:00Hello!

    We open the doors, welcome our children and are excited to get going for the day ahead.

  • 08:30Breakfast

    But first, breakfast!

    If your child joins us for breakfast, we offer a selection of cereals, toast, bagels, fruit and yoghurt.  There's always something delicious on offer!

  • 09:00Messy Play

    Everyone's favourite time!  We use a variety of delightfully messy activities to help children to develop their creativity and imagination.

  • 10:45Snack time

    All that creativity builds up an appetite!  I wonder what it's going to be today? Malt loaf, fresh fruit & yoghurt, rice cakes or yummy mackerel spread...

  • 11:00Heuristic Play

    We love outdoor learning so this could be a trip to the beach, a visit to the park or a garden mooch.  Our absolute favourite is going to the farm.

  • 12:00Lunch

    If we're out on a trip, we may have a picnic lunch but if not, your children will be offered a freshly prepared, nutritious meal, such as tuna pasta bake, roast dinner or sausage hot pot.

    We just ask that you let us know of any allergies or dietary requirements in advance, so we can provide alternatives where necessary.

  • 12:45Story time

    Let's allow our tummies to digest the yummy food and enjoy a story.  This is an essential part of the day as it supports your child's early language development.

  • 13:45Let's get cooking!

    By providing real life learning activities, such as cooking, the children have a real sense of achievement by doing something themselves.

  • 15:00Hello & Goodbye

    Usually some changeovers take place now, with the after-school children joining us and some little ones going back home.

  • 18:00Time to go home

    After a busy day, it's time to shut our doors and get ready to do it all again tomorrow!
