Fees can be paid weekly or monthly or by the term. All fees MUST be paid in advance. Always wait until your payment has been entered in the register.
Snacks:
Please give your child a small drink of milk/juice along with a sandwich/fruit as we encourage a healthy diet. Diet can have a huge effect on behaviour especially chocolate, sugar and artificial colouring. Therefore NO sweets/crisps or fizzy drinks are allowed.

| Notes: |
|
Please send your child to playgroup in play clothes. |
|
Children should not bring toys in from home as these inevitably get lost or broken or can cause rows with the other children. |
|
If your child is to be collected by an alternative adult other than that is on record, the playleaders MUST be informed in advance. |
|
Collect your child on time as lateness leads to stress and fear in a child. |
