We are currently carrying out a survey to assess the likely level of demand for 30 hour nursery provision under the new government 30 hour entitlement for working families.

Results from the survey will help us understand the level of need for 30 hour provision in this area. We can then look at possible ways this could be implemented. This could, for example, mean that we consider opening our school nursery for longer hours so that children can continue on from the morning session into the afternoon. 

If you live in the Hampsthwaite area, and you have a child who may be eligible for 30 hour funding in the near future, or you would wish to pay for up to 30 hours at our nursery, please complete the online survey here on our website (on the 'Have your say' page under the 'Parents' menu)

Many thanks, Mr Phoenix.
