2 Year Olds

 

From September 2021 we have merged our 2 year old’s and our youngest 3 year old children into one space, to create a larger and beautiful learning environment for our youngest learners. This space has its own garden, that the children are able to access during their session.

Funded Play and Learn Sessions

We currently offer spaces for 2 year places on both morning and afternoon sessions for 2 year old’s who are eligible for the government funded 2 year old play and learn sessions.
Nursery sessions are 3 hours long. Morning sessions are 8.45am- 11.45am and afternoon sessions are 12.30pm-3.30pm.
Although we will try our best to accommodate the sessions you require, our places are on a first come first serve basis and therefore we may only be able to offer sessions in which there are spaces.

If you think that you may be eligible for a funded place there are a number of ways to check. You are able to call in to the school office to collect a ‘free play and learn for 2 year old’s’ form and apply to the Local Authority. It is also possible to find out more information on Durham Families Information Service. This link also enables you to check your eligibility online.

You may receive a ‘Golden Ticket’ along with a letter from the Local Authority, this entitles your child to their FREE 15 hour place. Please bring your golden ticket to nursery and we can arrange some visit sessions, prior to your child starting nursery.

Children who are eligible for these sessions are able to take the 15 hour free entitlement across morning, afternoons or full day sessions.

Paid sessions 

We offer paid childcare sessions for children who are not eligible for a government funded place. These sessions are charged at £12 and can be flexible to meet the needs of children and their families.

If you are interested in a nursery place for your child please come down to the nursery for a look around or ring us on 0191 5865415.
