What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in Surrey
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Surrey from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
Children come into pre-school happy and excited. They are warmly greeted by staff. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) spend time getting to know the new staff who will be caring for them, with support from staff that know them well. This helps them form bonds, feel safe and remain settled. In general, children behave well and demonstrate their growing independence. In the two-year-old room, they learn how to begin to recognise their own care needs and are supported in meeting these. For example, children are taught to use the tissue station and take off their own shoes. By the time they are in the pre-school room, they confidently take themselves to the bathroom and know to wash their own hands. Older children are taught how to safely cut up fruit for snack time. They are proud to take additional responsibility for tasks, such as collecting the cups and carefully carrying the jug of milk for all their friends on their table.
Staff have high expectations for what children can achieve and provide an interesting range of activities that broaden their experiences from home. Children are eager to learn and explore. They remain engaged in their play and learning for significant periods. Children thoroughly enjoy practising their physical skills in the outdoor area, building dens and throwing balls through raised hoops, as well as experimenting by mixing potions from leaves and dried petals. Leaders seek extra funding to ensure that children with SEND receive any additional support they require. All children make good progress and are supported to develop the skills and knowledge required to start school.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - review and improve systems in place for keeping parents up to date with details of their child's key person and next steps for learning n strengthen staff's consistency in teaching children how to keep themselves and others safe, to further develop their understanding of the impact that their behaviour and actions has on others.

Still missing for Holy Trinity Pre-School
- What it costs
- Funded hours
- Youngest age taken
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
