St James's Nursery Wraparound Care:
Our current families and many prospective families have indicated that while they have found our increase to a 30-hour provision helpful, they would also like us to offer additional wrap around care hours. We want to take a cautious approach to expanding our offer, always ensuring that we can maintain our high standards in all aspects of our provision. From September 2025, we will now offer a morning wrap around care session for Nursery children. There will be two chargeable wraparound care periods that families can chose from:
Option 1: 7:30am– 9:10am and/or
Option 2: 8:40am to 9:10am (for children who will commence their nursery session in the morning).
