🚌  Outings
Outings are a regular part of our weekly routine and support children’s learning.

No charge for venues where a membership is currently held, including:

  • Drusillas
  • Sharnfold Farm
  • Middle Farm
  • Miniature Railway
  • And similar venues

  If membership prices increase and a membership is not renewed, a charge may apply if we wish to visit the place in future. Also most of membership are ticketed from when your child is  2+ or 3+ years old. I always check with the all parents if everyone is able to pay for it as we can’t leave anyone out.

🎭  Special Outings

From time to time we visit special events such as theatre, cinema, music shows, art gallery, museum, and seasonal activities in Eastbourne and surrounding areas.

  • These outings are optional
  • Charged at the ticket price set by the provider
  • Parents are always informed well in advance
  • I check if everyone is happy and able to attend before booking any tickets, as we can’t leave anyone out

No additional consumables fee is charged. Parents are asked to provide:

  • Nappies
  • Disposable nappy bags
  • Laundry bag
