Opening times & term dates
Duxford Preschool is open Monday to Friday from 9am until 3pm, during term-time only. We offer either full-day or half-day sessions. The morning session runs from 9am-12pm and the afternoon session from 12pm-3pm. Lunch is at midday, so any children who attend an afternoon session need to be provided with a packed lunch.
