The session will run from 3.05pmuntil 5.30pm in the evening.

The cost will be £5.50 per session per child.  The rate is fixed even if you do not require the whole session.  The children will be provided with a snack and a drink.

If the club is oversubscribed then children will be offered places in line with the admission policy attached to this letter.

All fees are payable weekly in advance and are non-refundable.  One months notice must be given by parents or the school if a child is to leave the club.

If you wish to apply for a place, please complete an application form and return it to school as soon as possible, you will be then informed if your child has a place.

  • Then places will be given to children who are booking for every day of the week.
