Dear parents/Careers,
Mother Goose Nursery is pleased to announce our hours of operation to become a pre-school, will be effective from April 2018.
The new opening hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (see new funded session below).
The change, will still include a breakfast club starting at 8am, will help to accommodate later than school hours of 4pm at an extra cost.
This we feel will create a stronger transition when leaving Mother Goose to start their new adventure at school.
AM | PM |

9am - 12pm | 12.30pm - 3.30pm |
Times available will be:
You can still pay for extra sessions if needed throughout the week, based on availability, please see new fee structure leaflet.
All children when they turn pre-school age will receive a book bag, complete with weekly tasks for you as parents to complete with them at home to enhance and encourage their development further getting them school ready.
All children will receive a free Mother Goose uniform t-shirt to be worn, to encourage unity and help create a smooth transition when getting ready for school.
Sincerely,
Mother Goose Nursery Team
