Government funded hours can be used for any sessions during open hours, however, cannot be applied to late pickup of children.

Parents of children who attend our Reception class can also book, pay for and attend our Early Bird and Twilight sessions during term time.

Booking schedules must be made for at least each full term, in advance, to support staff planning and may not be changed.  Additional sessions may be requested via the Blossom App in advance and will be subject to availability and reviewed for approval based on available staffing.

Invoices will be produced on the first working day for non-funded hours or additional services, for the prior month in arrears, and payable within 14 days.  Non-payment of invoices may result in your held deposit being offset against the amount outstanding and your child's place being withdrawn.
