Out of School Clubs

Our Zest out of school provision offers quality wraparound care before and after school.

Children are made to feel welcome by qualified staff within a safe, caring and enriching environment.  All our out-of-school clubs are Ofsted registered and provide stimulating activities including, games, creative play and crafts.

“The children that go to Breakfast Club always come into class happy and excited to share the things they have been doing, as well as the breakfast they have had. It has done wonders for the confidence of some of our younger children and improved their ability to make new friendships and develop relationships with staff.” 

EYFS Leader

The out of school provision makes a huge difference not only to the children who attend the sessions but also to the school staff, who have seen the effect these sessions have on the children.

It is also a great support to parents, who know that their children are being looked after and supported in such a caring environment.

Our aim before school is to provide a healthy nutritional breakfast at the start of the school day and for schools with after-school provision, registered children will receive a healthy, light meal.

A variety of child care vouchers are accepted. Families on Working Family Tax Credits can claim up to 70% of childcare costs back. Please visit www.direct.gov.uk or ask the club manager for more details.
