After School Club
Aims and Objectives
We aim to provide a high-quality After School Club provision that meets the needs of both parents and children. For parents, this means knowing that your child is safe and happy in a club that is reliable and offers a consistent service. For learners, this means an environment that is safe, supportive, and encouraging. It is a place to be with friends (and make new ones), to be able to try out new activities, to relax, to have fun and enjoy themselves. The clubs will provide a balanced structure of activities and experiences to support social and emotional skills..
Times
The After School Club will run from 3.10pm, (the end of the school day) until 4.00pm, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, during term time. There are no clubs on a Tuesday due to whole school staff meetings. The clubs will not operate on school inset days when the school is closed to learners. Learners are to make their way to the school hall at the end of the day for After School Club registration. Please arrive promptly to collect your child from the school reception at 4pm. If you are going to be late, please ensure that you contact the school so that the Club Leader can be notified. It is important that you let staff know if anyone other than you (the parent/carer) will be collecting your child.
After School Club Behaviour
Parents/carers are expected to give their support and encouragement to the aims of the After School Clubs and ensure that appropriate standards of punctuality, behaviour, and discipline are maintained. By registering your learner for a club activity, you confirm that you accept the authority of the After School Club staff and are happy for the staff to take all reasonable disciplinary or preventative action necessary to safeguard and promote the welfare of each learner and the After School Club community. The After School Club will follow the Westhaven School Behaviour Policy.
Parents/carers may be required to remove their child temporarily or permanently if the conduct of the learner is unacceptable, and where the Extended Schools Manager considers that the continued presence of the learner is incompatible with the interests of the After School Club.
After School Club Cost
Costs may differ for each activity offered, therefore, please see the termly club sign-up for separate costs. Clubs are bookable and payable bi-termly, clubs are booked on a first come first served basis as there are limited spaces. Payments will be made via Parent Pay. If your child does not attend the club due to absences or illness, fees will not be refunded.
Queries
If you have any queries or comments regarding After School Club, please contact the After School Club coordinator Mr Kane Bawden / Mr Ross McElain via the school reception.
