Terms and Conditions

We will ask you to fill in a registration form for your child. We do not ask for a fee at the time of booking your child’s playgroup place, however, we do ask that you pay your fees on time. We are totally self-sufficient and rely on the fees to keep playgroup running. Early Years funding will be paid directly to the playgroup from the Council. We do ask for a copy of your child’s birth certificate on registration, which is required for all government funding applications.
