As well as our usual nursery hours we offer Wraparound Care “Wraparound care’ is most usually referred to as childcare that wraps around a child’s Nursery/Pre School Education. With the support of St. John’s Extended School Club we are able to offer you as the Parent/Carer the flexibility to choose how you use your child’s Early Years Entitlement Funding. Children attending Sunbeams Nursery can be cared for from 7.45am – 5.30 pm five days a week during term time. We provide a stimulating and caring environment where children feel happy and secure.
The breakfast Club is held in the School hall and afterschool club is held in its own dedicated room in the infants. All staff ensures children are cared for before and after Pre School in a safe, secure and nurturing environment. As Parents/Carers you choose the daily care you require for your child – each day can be the same or different, you decide the times and hours - we are here to support and help you in any way we can. Please see over leaf the care we can offer you. You can request your sessions / care you require on the Admission Form .
