In December 2006 two mums of children at Olveston Primary School, Cath Purchase and Helen Day, decided to set up an after school club at the school. This was in response to requests from parents and a growing need in the community.

 

Since its opening in January 2007 in the Old School Hall, Olveston Out of School Club has been committed to providing high quality care and education for the children. The club works closely with the school to provide a fun and relaxing environment where children are given a range of play opportunities.

 

In June 2008 the club moved to the Wike Hall and was extended to include a breakfast club.

 

Since January 2009 Alex Hill, who has worked at the club since its opening, took over Helen's responsibilities as day care manager. Cath Purchase continues to manage the club, ably supported by a well-qualified and experienced staff team.
