Breakfast and After School Club
Our Breakfast and After School Club runs during term time in a safe, secure and relaxed environment, providing a smooth transition to and from school each day.
Children are free to choose activities and resources as they wish. Throughout the week there will be a selection of activities and resources available, for example, dressing up, crafts, board games, construction, physical play, cookery, reading and iPads. We will provide special activities and these can be themed to the seasons/cultural events or linked to what is going on in school. We also welcome suggestions from the children for activities they would like to do and we will take advantage of the wonderful site we have here and use the playground and school field (in dry weather).
There will also be opportunities for children to do their homework if they wish.
Our staff have significant experience of working with children and undertake professional development training.We maintain a staff/child ratio of 1:8 for children under the age of eight, and a ratio of 1:10 for children over the age of 8. Our staff are DBS checked and Paediatric First Aid trained.
