Wraparound Care - Breakfast & After School Care Club

At our Breakfast Club and After School Care Club we want your child to thrive and for you to be happy with the service you receive.

We are also here to support the needs of our parents and carers and ensure they have a stress-free morning without any concerns regarding dropping off your child/children before you go to work or picking them up after work or college.

After school is a time for play and enjoyment, teamed with great arts and craft with enjoyable team activities to ensure children can socialise and learn in a warm, friendly environment. Children also have some time with their friends to explore new ideas not necessarily available during school time.


Opening hours

Breakfast Club - Monday to Friday 7:15am to 8:30am. Term time only (excluding inset days). 

After School Care Club - Monday to Friday 3:30pm to 6:00pm. Term time only (excluding inset days).


Food

We are committed to promoting healthy eating in line with Healthy Eating for Schools. Please note, children may not bring their own food items to the club unless this has been agreed in advance due to allergy or food intolerances.

Breakfast Club. We provide a healthy fulfilling breakfast as research tells us that children are more attentive and concentration improves when they are not hungry or thirsty. Spring/Summer: fruit, cereal, toast and a variety of drinks. Winter: fruit, cereal, toast, beans on toast and variety of drinks to choose from. 

After School Care Club. Choice of five sandwich fillings, fruit, cereal, toast and a variety of drinks.
