    Warm welcoming childcare in Broughton Astley

    Thomas Estley Preschool

     

    We provide a pleasant and warm environment for your young child to develop their own experiences whilst supported and facilitated by our experienced and qualified staff. 

    Play is important for learning and they will get messy as they produce their first masterpieces, muddy in our mud kitchen and sandy in our hands on play! Social interaction is strongly encouraged so that your child makes new friends and develops their communication skills. Stimulating, exciting and challenging activities will give your child that head start ready for school, but there will still be the all-important fun, play, love and reassurance for your child.


    We currently have limited places available for 2, 3 and 4 year olds. 


    Thomas Estley Preschool is registered to accept Early Years Funding for children aged 2-4 years old. You may claim a maximum of 15 funded hours per week. In some circumstances you may be eligible for 30 hours funding. 


    You can attend any combination of our ten sessions per week (five mornings, five afternoons - see right hand column for details), from one to ten sessions per week, as long as spaces allow. 3-4 year olds can also attend sessions from 7:30am to 6:00pm.


     Please contact pre-school via college reception on 01455 283 263 and ask for Nikki Sadler, or email nsadler@thomasestley.org.uk

    Charging and invoicing information

    How will I be invoiced and how much will I be charged?

      How will I be invoiced and how much will I be charged?


    For one morning or afternoon session (9am-12pm or 12pm-3pm), the charge is £15.90 for three and four year olds and £17.90 for two year olds.

    For a whole day session from 9am to 3pm, the charge is therefore £31.80 for three and four year olds.

    Most of our children have these charges paid for completely through the government 15 hour a week or 30 hour a week funding, depending on the number of sessions which your child attends.


    7:30am - 9:00am (£6.25 per day) and 3:00-6:00pm (£11.50 per day) wraparound childcare for 3 and 4 year olds is also available as an additional charge. 


    Invoicing for this provision is monthly in advance.


    At Thomas Estley preschool, hot lunches can be purchased for an additional charge of £2:75 per day, or children can bring a packed lunch. Invoicing for hot lunches is monthly in advance.
