Pre-School Sessions and Fees
Paintbox Pre-School is open for two sessions daily each weekday, session times are:
Morning session 09:00-11:45
Afternoon session 11:45 - 15:15 (including lunch time)
As a registered charity we run as a non-profit making establishment therefore our current sessions fees are £5.05 per hour.
(Fees are revised periodically and may as a result increase).
Paintbox is registered to receive funding for children in the term after they turn 3 years of age. 15 & 30 hours of funding is available to all eligible children providing we have the space. We are also able to provide spaces for funded twos when eligible.
The fees are £5.05 per hour, payable half-termly in advance.
For new starters, the first invoice will be raised and posted to you along with other registration paperwork and will need to be paid in full before your child’s first session. Subsequent invoices are raised at least 2 weeks before the end of each term for the following term and are required to be paid in full before the start of the term.
Prolonged absence from Pre-School due to sickness or a hospital stay should be discussed with the Management Committee and a mutual agreement arrived at regarding fees.
Our Admissions Policy operates on a date of birth system; a copy is available for your information.
