chipmunks pre-school
Chipmunks is the Pre-School provision for The Rissington School.
Chipmunks Pre-School is situated in a purpose-built building within the grounds of the Upper Rissington site.
We take children from the term after their third birthday, when all children receive 15 hours' government funding. Some parents may also be eligible to access additional funding for 30- hours of provision (click here for details).
Please note that although the school is able to advise and support on funding, it is the parent's responsibility to arrange 30 hour funding. Morning, afternoon and whole day sessions are offered.
- Free entitlement hours – free 15 or 30 hours depending on eligibility
- Additional private paid hours - £5.33 per hour (3 hour sessions - £15.99)
- Food charges - £2.85 per meal if you would like a school lunch to be provided.
- Option to bring own packed lunch from home if you wish.
- Non-food consumables charges – no charge normally, however, a voluntary contribution may be requested if a special event.
- Activity/trip charges – voluntary contribution may be requested depending on activity costs.
Further information about admission is available in our Pre-School Admissions Policy.
The Pre-School is very popular, so we do recommend that you register an interest early if you are considering enrolling your child.
