​Registration Fee
We ask for a registration fee of £20 to cover the start up costs of each new child. 

Snack Contribution
We ask parents to pay 50p per day to contribute to their child’s snack. We give the children a varied, healthy snack of fresh fruit and vegetables, followed by a choice of, for example, toast, a biscuit, breadsticks, rice cakes or malt loaf and milk or water for their mid-morning snack, often supplemented by something we have baked ourselves!
