Nursery

At St Christopher's Nursery, the pupils learn through a play-based, thematic approach, utilising a range of interesting and creative teaching methods. They have the freedom to explore, investigate, discover, imagine, and to develop their knowledge, skills and understanding through self-chosen activities and adult-led experiences.

We offer two options regarding the length of your child's Nursery Day.

  • Option 1: 'Half Day', 7:50 - 12:15. Termly Nursery Fees of BD1130 per term.
  • Option 2: 'Full Day', 07:50 - 14:25. Termly Nursery Fees of BD1480 per term. 

Included in the cost of our 'Full Day' are SPARTA sessions. These sessions will be led by the SPARTA coaches; all movement between Nursery and the SPARTA activities will be managed by the SPARTA and Nursery Team.

There will be additional Nursery SPARTA options available for children attending for just the 'Half Day'. These sessions run from 12:15 - 13:15, and are available at an additional cost.Further SPARTA information and access to booking is available on the school website. 

If you wish to register your child for the full day attendance, we must have your explicit permission to keep your child on for the full day, for insurance purposes, and we require an acknowledgement from you that you agree for them to attend for the duration of this term. You will be required to complete a Google Form if you wish your child to participate in the full Nursery day.
