Stepping Stones aim to offer a variety of sessions which allow you to build your child's attendance around your family requirements. 

​

Choose from a full day or morning session, with the option of adding an early bird session (8.30am start)  Monday - Friday for those who require a little extra time in the morning.

 

Both full day and morning sessions include time to sit down with the children and eat our packed lunches together, talk about our day and generally have lots of fun!
