Specific dates that Small World will be closed (some provisional)
Proposed closure dates over four years, subject to change. Please confirm these dates before making decisions or bookings based on these dates. We try to match our closures to those of the local council to help parents with children at school.
Standing order calculations take into account all of these dates, including provisional dates, from the start of the calculation through to the term of the calculation (usually up to 12 months)
Unless listed here or otherwise published, Small World is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm every weekday (closed all day Saturday & Sunday)

After school - term dates
After school fees are based on the published Oxfordshire County Council term dates as published at
http://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/termdates
Inset days, when the school is also closed, are based on St Swithuns as published at
https://www.StSwithunsPrimary.org/Calendar
If your school term dates differ from these, you should not be charged extra for additional term time sessions, but equally you may be charged for days when your child is on holiday compared with these dates.
