KS2 children come straight to the club at 3.30pm.  They are registered by our club staff then can choose to play or to eat a healthy snack such as toast, fruit, crumpets and cheese. Children in KS1 are are collected by a staff member and escorted to the club. They can choose to eat any time between 3.30pm and 4.30pm.  There is a range of craft, play and role-play equipment available and a large selection of outdoor activities as well as a relaxation corner with books, DVD and Wii. Cooking and craft activities are included in the session fee - pop in and visit after school any time and see many happy children!
