Primary Schools are now required to publish alongside their Performance information a list of their childcare provision making it easier for parents to know what is available.
We try, as far as possible, to make each club accessible and affordable for all by ensuring that our costs are kept low. Teaching staff run clubs in conjunction with external providers. Our range of clubs will change on a half termly basis depending upon which external provider we are working with. We endeavour to provide as wide a range of enrichment experiences as we can to our children.
We offer a range of childcare provision which we have listed below:
Breakfast Club (daily) – We begin the day at 8.00am for Breakfast club members. Here children can access an affordable, healthy meal. The club is run by Mrs Hill, Mrs Nicholson, Miss Liddle, Mrs Cooke and Mrs Hill and cost is currently £5.00 per week. Miss Liddle also provides interventions during breakfast club such as additional reading and writing practise, improving co-ordination, gross and fine motor skills and getting along projects. If you are interested in your child coming to breakfast please call in at the office.
Wrap Around Care (daily)
Nettlesworth Primary School are pleased to be able to offer a Wrap Around Care facility to our pupils and parents/carers. This will include Afterschool Care now for pupils from across the school.
We aim to support our community and ensure that there is extended provision for those families that need it. The club is led and managed by a team committed to providing high quality experiences for every child, parent and carer who uses it. It provides a friendly, caring and safe environment in which children are encouraged to develop social, personal, and recreational skills under the supervision of experienced staff. It is open during term time only, from Monday to Friday between 3:30pm and 6:00pm.
- After School Childcare will be run by Mrs Nicholson and other school staff from 3.30pm to 6.00pm, Monday-Friday.
- The children are given a drink and a snack.
- Pupils will undertake a range of activities with staff in the hall or playground (weather dependent).
- We require at least 24 hours notice for any cancellations for after school care bookings otherwise charges will still apply.
