What do children do at After School Club?
After a busy school day, we aim to provide the children with time to wind down in the way they choose and the structure of the club is kept informal; activities include drawing, playing with toys or board games, role play, ball games, etc. During the warmer, drier months we make use of the playing field.
What food will my child be given?
A healthy snack is served every day; typical snacks are cheese and crackers, sandwiches, toast, vegetable sticks and a selection of fresh fruit. We do cater for children with allergies or food preferences (such as vegetarians or coeliac) – please contact the School Office if you have any concerns.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Staffing, food and activities are prepared in advance in expectation of your child’s attendance at booked clubs. For this reason, should your child not attend a booked club and we are not notified of the cancellation within the required time frames, we are not able to offer a refund,
Please also be aware that there will be no After School Club on the last day of each term.
