Opportunities for further learning and development are endless. Early Years and Reception children are welcomed to join our enrichment programme from 2:30pm to 3:20pm, Monday to Thursday and from 2:30pm to 3:00pm on Friday. The children will have the opportunity to play, explore and practice the skills they have been devolving. There is no need to commit to this, just sign them up on the sign in sheet in the morning when you drop them at school! See our exciting enrichment programme timetable below.
