OUR DAILY SCHEDULE

The Club opens at 8am each day. On arrival you must register in with the staff. Children will be greeted by one of our friendly staff members and are shown where to put their coats and bags. For children visiting for the first time they will be paired up with a buddy for the day for them to feel welcomed.

Breakfast is served between 8:20am – 9am, with a choice of toast, cereal, fruit, Apple / Orange Juice, Milk or Water

On a day where the activities are club based, we have three breaks: a mid-morning snack, lunch which children need to bring (no glass bottles & Due to the number of children with nut allergies, we ask that you don’t include nuts or any foods that include/contain nuts in pack lunches.

Special dietary requirements can be accommodated so please ensure you let us know on using the health section within our Famly app (please see menu).

In addition to the planned programme, we provide a range of play opportunities that includes construction play, role play, a drawing area, books, puzzles and board games, plus outside play with a range of equipment particularly for that purpose. Children can move freely from one activity to another.

On all coach trip day’s parents must ensure that children arrive into club before 9:00am and for other trips please check the programme. You will be notified by a staff member if at any time there is a change to this arrangement.

There may be occasions when the programme may change, due to weather or other circumstances that are out of our control, but we will endeavour to keep you informed, and to give you as much notice as possible when this happens.

Tea Time

Teatime is a pleasant social time with children sitting down to enjoy the tea which includes items such as sausage and mash, soup and roll or pasta. In addition to the menu item, children can also choose from cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, and yoghurt.

Children receive a drink with their tea, and drinking water is available all day when children want an additional drink.

On a day trips, children have to be registered by the given time on the programme so we can ensure they get a full day of adventure. The safety of all the children is of great importance to us, so the following steps are always taken:

• All staff are qualified and experienced play workers, who are trained in street and travel safety procedures.

• We operate on a ratio of staff to children in line with Ofsted requirement of 1:10

• Each child wears a bright high visibility jacket to identify them from a distance

• Before each journey children are reminded of our code of practice with regard to outings

• A first aid kit is taken on every trip and all staff are first aid trained

At the end of the day parents collect children from the registration desk before 6.30pm, if we are out on a day trip we endeavour to return on time. A late fine will be incurred for all children collected after 6.30pm.

Please Note:

The children have a fun filled and often energetic day, so it’s very important that parents include a minimum of two drinks in pack lunches especially when we are on day trips. We request that drinks are not in cartons but in screw top plastic bottles (NO GLASS), as this allows children to take a drink as and when needed, rather than having to drink a whole carton at once. Drinking water is available to children, all day when we are based at the club.

Dressing Your Children for the Holiday Club

Please remember our programme includes a minimum of 2 trips each week therefore:

• Children need to be dressed in clothes that are comfortable and suitable for playing both inside and outdoors.

• They will need to wear footwear that is suitable for walking and physical activities.

• A light coat / rain jacket just in case the weather changes.
