Clarke’s CLUB
Clarke’s CLUB is an exciting new wraparound facility managed by Richard Clarke First School staff and provides professional, high quality care for children at the beginning and end of the school day. The club is open daily, term time only, within the school premises and so is in a safe and secure environment.
Whilst there is an emphasis on relaxation, there is a carefully planned balance of activities including physical, subject specific and creative pursuits. When the weather is suitable, we will also make use of our extensive outside facilities including the timber trail, the field/playgrounds, courtyard and forest school learning spaces, all under the supervision of qualified school staff. There will also be opportunities to enrich children’s learning by being supported with things like prep work for lessons, practicing reading, being read to and completing independent learning, that you might not easily find time to do at home.
This means not only can the children enjoy what they are doing in these before and after school sessions, but they will also gain in self-esteem, self-confidence and feel prepared for the school day whilst also learning new skills and interests.
Clarke’s CLUB is open to all children of a first school age, and parents can book as little as one session per week. The minimum booked session is one hour and parents are billed monthly. Parents may be able to claim Tax Free Credits and/or Tax Free Childcare or use Childcare vouchers.
