Some days need an adventure.
Some just need a favourite book.

Our planned hours are 7am–6pm. Please enquire about the days you need. We will confirm operating days, availability and arrangements before any booking is agreed.
Can I enquire about school holidays only?
Yes. Let us know which school holidays, dates and hours you are looking for. Dates and availability will be confirmed separately.
Will meals and snacks be included?
Meal and snack arrangements are being developed. We will discuss these, along with dietary needs and fees, before a booking is agreed.
What should my child bring?
We will share a practical guide before care begins, including clothing, personal belongings and anything needed for particular activities.
Can I reserve a place now?
We welcome enquiries while preparing to open. Opening remains subject to the required approvals and registration. An enquiry does not reserve a place; availability and bookings will be confirmed separately.
