The operational models for our 3 to 5 children are the 46 week , 49 week and term time model.
Children can attend AM or PM sessions, 8am till 12:40pm or 1:20pm till 6pm. Or two full days and a half day. Monday and Tuesday 8am till 6pm and Wednesday 8am till 12:48pm or Wednesday 1:12pm till 6pm, Thursday and Friday 8am till 6pm.
In the term time room, children attend Monday to Friday 9am to 3pm and are on holiday during school holidays.
Children stay for lunch, which is delivered to nursery and children eat their lunch in the hall.
As well as providing quality education and care for local catchment children aged three to five, we also provide early learning and childcare for eligible two-year olds. Children and families who would benefit from an early entrant placement can also be referred to the centre by health visitors, pre-school home visitors and/or social workers. They are enrolled through an inter-agency referral process. These spaces offered are AM or PM places on the 49 week model.
At Halbeath Nursery we aim to ensure that there is a welcoming atmosphere and a positive ethos, and that all children are educated in a safe, secure, happy and health-promoting environment.
