Before School and After School Care

We provide a Free Breakfast Club run by school staff from 8.00-8.40am. At the end of the session, the younger children are escorted to class by a member of staff. Children are given a nutritious breakfast including cereals, fruit juice, toast and waffles.

After School Club is also run by school staff from 3.30-6.00p.m. A snack comprising wraps/sandwiches plus raw veg and fresh fruit is provided. Activities are fun and children are supported with reading/homework activities. Children in all years (except Nursery) are able to attend.

Booking Breakfast club and After School Club

In order to streamline booking and payments for Breakfast and After School Clubs, places are booked and paid for online via Parent Pay.

These are the options to choose from:

Breakfast Club – FREE

After School Club 15:30 -16:30 – £5

After School Club 16:30 – 18:00 – £7

After School club 15:30 – 18:00 – £12

Parents/Carers need to book their child’s place in advance using Parent Pay. Once a slot has been booked, Parents/Carers will have 2 hours to pay before the slot is lost. Any cancellation/changes must be made more than a whole day in advance of the booking. After this time, the money paid cannot be reimbursed. If a place is cancelled more than a whole day in advance of the booking, a refund will be issued.

Childcare vouchers are accepted. Parents/Carers should contact their provider and ask for funds to be transferred to the school. Once notification is received by the school, the funds will be loaded on to Parent Pay for the parents’/carers’ chosen sessions. Parents/Carers are required to submit in advance in order that they can book sessions in the usual way.

LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS

Last minute emergency bookings will only be accepted via the school office. School will monitor closely all bookings made in this way. Should bookings need to be made in this way more than 3 times in a half term, the school will refuse the child a place at Before/After School Care henceforth.

Any emergency sessions will be added by the school to Parent Pay but the Parent/Carer will need to log in to settle the bill. Please note that any outstanding bills incurred as a result of emergency booking must be settled within a week. If the payment remains outstanding, the child will not be able to be booked on another Before/After School Care session until the bill is settled.
