Our Fees
One simple day rate with everything included
Parents are free to pick up and drop off as they wish, but the day rate is fixed. We require a minimum attendance of two days per week (20 hours), as regular attendance supports effective language acquisition, continuity of learning, and stronger relationships with practitioners and peers.
Everything Included in Your Fee
- Extracurricular activities including (depending on the age of the child) e.g. Science Club, Storytime Chess, Prodigies Music, Campfire Ukulele sessions, Bits de Inteligencia, Sensory Club, Valores Positivos (Positive values), World Art and much more!
- All food including breakfast, morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack and tea
- External visits to support our monthly themes — previous examples include a visit from lots of owls, an African musician, a Bollywood dancer, a steel pan musician, insects and reptiles and more
- Consumables including sun cream, baby wipes and nappy cream (unless you prefer to provide your own)

Studies show that bilingualism actually helps language acquisition and bilingual children speak more words than their monolingual peers in total. The rule of thumb is that if a child has a speech and language problem it is in spite of, not because of, bilingualism.
We have to assess the children's language skills in English due to the EYFS requirements so it is something we keep an eye on and children have access to English in a number of their extra-curricular activities like Science Club, cookery, Prodigies Music, StoryTime Chess. We also have a few native English speakers amongst the staff. We introduce Spanish gradually when they first start if they don't speak Spanish at home.
