    Fees are charged calendar monthly in advance. The monthly amount is the weekly amount multiplied by 51 (the number of weeks the nursery is open) and then divided by 12. Fees are charged for all holidays and bank holidays, missed sessions due to illness or in the event of the nursery being closed due to circumstances beyond our control such as adverse weather, power failure or fire. One month’s notice must be given for any child leaving the nursery or reducing sessions.
