New prices have been announced for parents using Bath College’s crèche and gym facilities, run by Level 2 childcare and sports students, which offer locals affordable childcare and the opportunity to develop their health and fitness.
Parents can drop off their children at the crèche and visit the college gym, which opened to members of the public for the first time in October.
Many students at Bath College undertake work experience in the community, and the crèche and gym is providing students with another opportunity to experience a real working environment.
The project ran free of charge for the first couple of months, and the new prices will help towards its future.
Lecturer in early years Abigail Holt said: “We have had an incredible response so far and I would like to thank parents for the way they have supported our learners.
“The students have enjoyed the work experience, and it is great to see such fantastic learning taking place for both early years and sports students.”
The crèche and gym, at Bath College’s city centre campus, is open on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9am to 11am during term time.
Bookings will be taken in advance, and block bookings can be made. There is a first-come, first-serve system, as well as a waiting list.
Non-refundable payments can be processed at the college shop, in the main Roper Building, behind the café. These can be paid for per term or a week in advance.
