Motivated to learn, empowered to achieve

Nursery

 

Welcome to Ottershaw Nursery. We are pleased to be part of Ottershaw  Christ Church C of E Infant and Junior Schools and the larger community of Ottershaw.

Our intention is to help each child, through play, to develop skills and gain knowledge, which will be relevant to his/her development and future.

We hope to make this possible by creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere of trust and happiness, where children will feel secure and cared for.

We offer flexible options for parents who are entitled to either

  • 15 hours universal entitlement of free early learning. This is offered over 5 part time morning sessions or 5 part time afternoon sessions.    

           OR                                                 

  • Extended 30 hours of free early learning. This is offered over the 5 morning and the 5 afternoon sessions. This entitlement is available to working parents who qualify - please refer to the Childcare Choices website

Session times

Morning session               9.00am   -  12.00pm

Afternoon session           12.00pm  -   3.00pm

The Nursery operates the same dates each term as the schools but occasionally there is an extra closure, usually for specific nursery in-service training.

Admission

Children are normally admitted in the September following their third birthday; this keeps inline with the academic year. To be considered in the September allocation of places, applications should be made by 1st March of the same year. Should the Nursery not be full, children may be admitted at the beginning of the term following their third birthday.

Applications can be submitted at any age and should be made to the Infant school office. We aim to  offer places a term in advance. Please contact the Infant school office if you would like to arrange a visit to come and look around.

  2. Children with Exceptional Medical or Social Circumstances
