WRAPAROUND CARE
Breakfast Club
We operate a free Breakfast Club every day from 8.00am. Children who wish to attend should be dropped at the Canteen gate by 8.10am daily.
Children are offered a choice of cereals, toast and spreads and other breakfast items in a friendly and informal setting.
There is no need to book to come to Breakfast Club, just be at the Canteen Gate between 8.00am and 8.10am to be admitted.
WASP After School Club
We are delighted to be able to provide an extended childcare offer for the end of the day - WASP. WASP after school club runs from 3.15pm to 6.00pm, Monday to Friday during term time (closed on INSET days). Children attending the club are provided with a wide range of activities and the club is run by school staff who are qualified and experienced in play work.
WASP offers a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment for up to 30 children and is operated from the school canteen building.
Sessions include a range of fun activities and play equipment for children to choose from. These include sports and games, arts and crafts, role play, dance and drama, themed days, den building, board games, books, toys, cosy corner, sensory toys, talent shows, trikes and the use of the playgrounds and Trim Trail climbing equipment.
Children attending WASP will be provided with a delicious and healthy snack from a choice of toast, crackers, wraps, crumpets or rice cakes, fruit and vegetables, spreads, juice and water. Vegan options are available every day.
What is the cost?
The current charge is £10 per session. Siblings are charged at £7 for the first sibling and £5 for the second sibling.
We are registered to accept payment from Tax-Free Childcare accounts which can provide you with up to £2000 per year towards the cost of using this childcare. A link to sign up for a Tax-Free Childcare account is below and provides further information –
How do I sign up?
Places at WASP can be booked using the Arbor App. This will enable you to book up to 24 hours in advance providing there are places available. You will only be able to book a place if your Arbor account has sufficient funds available to cover the cost. If you are making payments via Tax-Free Childcare you will need to notify the school office of the reference number for each child you are paying for which will enable us to credit your Arbor account with any funds received.
Do I still have to pay if my child does not attend?
We regret that we are unable to offer refunds for any places that aren’t cancelled without at least 24 hours’ notice. This includes occasions where you child may not attend as they are unwell or need to attend an appointment.
Collection of children
If your child is attending WASP you can collect them at any point between 3.15pm and 6.00pm from the Canteen gate. All children must be collected by an adult – we do not permit children to walk home alone from WASP. There is a £5 late pick up fee per child for any children who are not collected by 6.00pm.
How do I contact WASP?
