At Cedars Primary School, our Nursery offers a warm and inspiring start to your child’s learning journey. We provide flexible 15 and 30-hour sessions in both N1 and N2, supporting families and young learners from ages 3 to 4. The Nursery is led by our Nursery Manager and it takes up to 39 children.Â
We see parents as partners and keep you updated on your child’s progress, both informally day-to-day and formally at parents’ evenings and through written reports.
Join our nurturing Nursery community—where every child is encouraged, supported, and celebrated.
5 mornings per week = 15 hours (9:00am – 12:00pm)
5 afternoons per week = 15 hours (12:00pm – 3:00pm)
5 mornings and 5 afternoons = 30 hours (9:00am – 3:00pm)
To apply for a nursery place for September, January or April, Parents/Carers fill in an application form and submit this to the school office. We will accept applications outside of these  months if places are available.
Successful applicants will receive an offer of a place and details of the induction programme. We hold an induction evening where parents are invited to meet with the staff. This provides an opportunity for parents to find out about the philosophy and ethos of the school and to have a tour of our Nursery.
Families are offered a home visit, to fill in required paperwork and to meet the Nursery Manager. Each child is given a start date and an initial stay and play session with their parent. Children are invited to attend two stay and play sessions before they start at our Nursery.Â
Breakfast Club runs daily from 7:30am every morning at a cost of £5.00 per session.
After School Club runs daily from 3:00pm to 6:15pm at a cost of £12 per session.
In addition to the 15 funded hours of childcare provided by the government, some families will be entitled to 30 hours of funded childcare.
Tax-Free Childcare and 30 hours free childcare are two separate government schemes, to help parents with the cost of childcare. You can apply for both through one online application – the childcare service.
Parents can check their eligibility on the Parent Portal on the HMRC website.
