At Sir James Knott Nursery School and The Nest, we are committed to providing high-quality early education and care within our funded entitlement. Alongside this, we offer a small number of optional, chargeable extras to enhance children’s experiences and support families’ childcare needs.
Chargeable extras may include:
🍽️ Hot lunches and teatime meals, freshly prepared and carefully planned to meet children’s needs and dietary requirements.
⏰ Extended hours, such as breakfast and teatime provision, where applicable.
🎉 Special events or enrichment activities, where these go beyond our early education offer.
All chargeable extras are entirely optional and are clearly outlined in advance so families can make informed choices. We are committed to transparency and ensure that no child is disadvantaged if families choose not to access additional services.
If you would like further information about current charges or available options, please speak to a member of the team or contact the school office. We are always happy to discuss how we can best support your child and family.
