Fees
We offer three different options on weekly hours (all run Monday-Friday).
●20hours (9.15am -1.15pm)
●30hours (9.15am - 3.15pm)
●15hours (12.15pm - 3.15pm)
We offer places under the Government's 15 and 30 hour schemes as well as subsidised places for those on benefits. Please note that there is always a small supplementary cost associated with the 15 and 30 hours schemes. This is primarily for the cost of providing a hot lunch and paying for the external providers of extra activities (like Sparky Songs and Sports School).
Here are our WEEKLY fees for 2 and 3+ year olds for all the sessions we offer.

Government funded care for 2, 3 and 4 year-olds and tax free child care
Are you finding all the funding options very confusing? You aren't alone! Please give us a call, or send an email to admissions@christchurchplaygrouphighbury.com and we can help you understand what you might be eligible for as part of our admissions process.
Payments:
Fees are payable monthly via standing order, either directly into the Christ Church Playgroup account and or by Childcare Vouchers or via the tax-free-childcare portal. If you have any queries about these payments, please speak to the fees administrator or the Playgroup Treasurer.
Deposits required to secure places:
Please note a £200 deposit (£50 for families on benefits) is required by all new starters before they start with the playgroup to ensure a secured place. This deposit will be deducted from the first months invoice.
