Snow Closure Notice

As soon as we receive warning that we are closed, we will put a notice on our website straight away, thus please look here before setting off!


General Note

In case of snow disruption, please check to find out if your host school is open before you start your journey.

If your host school is closed, unfortunately Breakfast and After School Club will be unable to operate either.


Please also note, in very exceptional circumstances (i.e. heavy snowfall) we may have to close After-School Club(s) early for safety reasons; please ensure your contact details are up-to-date.

With regards to Magpies Pre-School, we adhere to the same opening policies as North Kidlington School, thus, if the School is closed, unfortunately so will Pre-School.


With regards to Holiday Play-Scheme, we make every effort to keep this running, but in some circumstances (as with heavy snowfall) it is impossible to guarantee the safety of children and staff, thus we may be forced to close.


Magpies Christmas Raffle and Fundraising Thank You

We recently approached many of our local businesses in Kidlington, asking for donations and prizes to help with our fundraising efforts. We really have been amazed by their generosity and would like to say a special thank you to the following: Black Horse Pub, Bunkers Hill Nursery, Fairy Godmother, The Hair Gallery, Homegoods, Hunts the Printers, La Patisserie Bakery, Michael & Company, Oxford Building Supplies, Sainsbury’s, Ben Scurr Personal Trainer, Tesco, Tiffins Tandoori, Taurus Training, T M Warner & Co Solicitors and Woodlands Butchers. 


For further information regarding Magpies fundraising efforts please contact theteam@kidlingtonmagpies.co.uk

We are delighted to recognise the invaluable contribution made by the 'Awards for All' lottery scheme to MAGPIES. Much of the equipment that we have today was purchased by lottery funding, and the trips we still run are only possible because of their Grant. A second grant went towards the purchase of the fantastic MAGPIES Minibus, that is real help in collecting and delivering children safely and expanding our range of services.

Any orders you place through the link will earn MAGPIES a commission.
