Children of this age are entitled to 15 hours free each week at nursery. (depending on availability and requirements). If your child is attending only for the funded sessions we ask for a £2.00 per session fee towards food/snacks/drinks.

Your child must be three before the term begins, we will automatically apply for the grant on your behalf and you will need to supply id information regarding your child’s date of birth. A parent or guardian will also have to sign a parental contract with the London Borough of Redbridge.

A fine of £10.00 will be issued between 6.00pm – 6.15pm. After this time the fine issued will be decided by the manager. If a child has not been collected by 7pm and no contact has been made with either parents/carers or emergency contacts then Green Lane will contact The Children and Families Advice Centre for guidance.

If your child attends a half day session in the morning a late fine still applies, a £10.00 will be issued between 1pm-1.15pm.


Payment:

There are three methods of payment

  1. Weekly- please pay on the first session your child attends each week.
  2. Monthly- monthly fees are calculated by multiplyingthe weekly amount by fifty two weeks, then dividing the amount by twelve months, giving twelve equal payments throughout the year. Monthly payments are always due in advance and on the same date each month.
