Breakfast & After School Club
Breakfast and After School clubs at the school are run by our own school staff who deliver high-quality childcare services.
Their experienced and dedicated team is committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for all children. They offer a range of activities designed to support the educational and social development of students, including:
- homework assistance
- arts and crafts
- sports and outdoor play
- quiet time for reading and relaxation
Breakfast Club provision runs from 7.30am to 8.35am at a cost of £5.50 per child per session.
After School Club provision runs from 3.20pm to 6.00pm (last pick up at 5:55pm) at a cost of £11.00 per child per session.
If your employer offers childcare vouchers and you would like to use them to pay for breakfast or after school club please contact the Finance Office. These costs are reviewed annually. You must pre-book and pay in advance using our school system, ParentPay.
Children should who attend this club should be able to access it independently: this includes being emotionally resilient to be in the club, independent with toileting and feeding and showing the behaviours we would expect within the setting.
You can find our School Calendar below, which shows the key events that are coming up.
