Our Ofsted Outstanding nursery welcomes children from the age of three. We provide children with a fun and stimulating environment to play and learn, while helping to prepare them for starting primary school.

  • 15 and 30-hour funded places for eligible families.
  • Self-funded options available too.
  • Daily wraparound care.
  • Qualified, dedicated Early Years staff.
  • Ofsted Outstanding.

We follow the Early Years curriculum, encouraging healthy development and building the foundations for a lifelong love of learning. Our timetable, offering free play and structured activities, is designed to inspire and engage little learners and to meet the needs of each individual child.

Session Times

The nursery is open every day during term-time. Session times are 8.45am–3.15pm Monday to Friday.

There are three collection times (11.45am, 12.15pm and 3.15pm) and we can offer flexible hours to suit each family’s needs.

We also offer wraparound care for nursery children.

  • Breakfast Club daily from 7.45am. 
  • After School Club daily until 6pm (4.30pm on Fridays). 

Funding

All three or four-year-olds are entitled to 15 hours of free childcare a week. Some families are entitled to 30 hours. To view the eligibility criteria and apply for this funding, please visit childcarechoices.gov.uk.

We also offer self-funded options, currently at a cost of £7.50 per hour. So if you are entitled to 15 hours but would like your child to attend for longer, you can pay for the extra hours. From September 2026, we will be slightly increasing our self-funded session rate. We also offer a discount for twins for the self-funded session rate. Please call our office to find out more.

“Children in the early years show independence and confidence when completing tasks. They are well prepared for the next stage in their education. This strong start continues as the pupils move through the school.”

~ Ofsted, June 2024

Admissions

Children normally start in our nursery the September after they turn three, although we may be able to offer an in-year place at other times if one is available. In these cases, aditional places could be offered in agreement with the school and, providing funds are available (government or personal), children may start on turning 3 years old. 

You can apply for a nursery place directly with us. We still have spaces available for September 2026. Please call the office on 01707 643576 to find out more and book a tour. We would love to meet you and your child.

If there are less than 32 applications, all children will be offered a place. If we receive more applications than places available, our admissions criteria will apply.

Please note, a nursery place doesn’t guarantee entry to our Reception class. Families still need to apply for a primary school place via Hertfordshire County Council and places are allocated according to our admissions criteria.
