Term Dates 2023-24
We are open all year round. Children enrolled in our all-year-round plan can attend the nursery all year, except for a one-week closure during Christmas and the scheduled training dates.
On the other hand, children enrolled in our term-time-only plan can attend 42 weeks a year. However, they cannot attend during our term-time holidays, which may differ from Brighton and Hove school term dates. Please note that we use our term dates for invoicing and attendance purposes.
​
If you attend term time only and receive Early Years Funding, you will pay the full cost for the weeks that funding does not cover. This is for four weeks each year.

Fees
Our individual fee sheets contain the information you need regarding our term-time-only fees. We strive to make budgeting easy, and as such, we split the term time fees into 11 equal monthly payments from September to July. Your fee (without funding) is calculated by multiplying the weekly fee by 42 weeks and dividing the sum by 11 months. August is excluded from the payment schedule, but your nursery place will remain reserved for the following September. Fees with funding are calculated differently, don't hesitate to contact us for a quote.
Closure Days
Please note that we are closed on all bank holidays. However, we do offer a credit towards current monthly fees for these holidays. Further information can be found on our fee sheets.
