At Wouldham, we are pleased to be able to offer childcare to our parents before and after school in the form of a Breakfast Club and an After-school Club. These services are open to all pupils and run Monday – Friday during term time.
We believe that this childcare provides a secure and stimulating environment for the children.
Monday – Friday
- Breakfast club starts at 7.30am
- After school club finishes at 6.00pm
Clubs are run by current Wouldham All Saints staff who fully meet the criteria required to work with children. Our staff already know your children and will have similar high expectations of your children at the club as they do when they are in school.
Once the children arrive at club, they can participate in a wide and varied range of activities. Children at afterschool club can do their homework, participate in reading/craft activities, play outside if the weather is fine.
When breakfast club ends children in KS1 will be escorted to their classrooms to begin the school day. For afterschool club, children in KS1 are collected from their classrooms.
Location
Breakfast club entrance is located to the left of main reception at the front of the children. The door will be opened by staff from 7.30am.
