Hello and Welcome to St John's Nursery
In our Nursery there are two teachers:

- Nursery starts each day at 8.45am. If your child requires morning only sessions (15hrs a week) they should be collected by 11.45am (doors open at 11.30).
- The morning session ends at 11.45am when those children who stay all day (30hrs) have their Packed Lunches (11.45am-12.15pm) which they bring from home before continuing the day with the afternoon session.
- The Nursery Day finishes at 3.15pm (doors open from 3.00pm). All children should be collected by 3.15pm
- All Nursery Children receive free milk and a fruit snack each day and have access to indoor and outdoor provision throughout each session.
- All sessions are Teacher-led.
Every child will be allocated a Key Worker who will make sure they are always settled, happy and learning.
Parents & Carers will be able to contact the Key Worker by email at office@st-john.lancs.sch.uk
