After School Care (ASC)
Play Leader, Elizabeth Coffey
Playworker, Laura Alvarez.
As a school we realise how important safe and stimulating child care provision outside normal school hours is for some of our parents, particularly those with work commitments. Our After School Care provision (ASC) runs every school day 3-5:30 pm (except very occasionally when school events prevent use of facilities). Based in the school hall, we provide a safe, secure and relaxed environment for up to 16 children from ages 4 to 11 years old (Reception Year to Year 6)
On arrival, the children are able to choose from a range of structured play activities, including art & craft, jigsaws, board games, construction activities, dressing-up, indoor and outdoor sports, and time for homework.
At about 4.30pm, they are provided with a light meal, e.g. sandwiches with a variety of raw vegetables followed by fresh fruit. They sit together for the meal and are encouraged to help lay the table and pack away.
After tea, the children are encouraged to sit for a time together before playing again - possibly sharing books and stories or playing a board game.
We try to use the outdoor space as much as possible - through the rain and snow - and with this is mind, we ask that children attending the club have a change of clothes and shoes, to avoid school uniform being damaged.

After School Care - Terms and Conditions
Our club runs from 3 - 5:30 pm, Monday to Friday (apart from occasional school events that prevent the use of facilities).
Charges and Payments
The charge per session, including a light snack, is £9
Where a child attends an after school activity before arriving at the club, fees will be charged from the end of the school day.
This secures your child’s place in the event of the after school activity being cancelled last minute.
Your child’s ASC reservation needs to be booked in advance at the end of the previous term due to the 'first come first served' system we run. We will then expect you to commit to these dates except in the most exceptional of circumstances. This is to ensure that we have sufficient guaranteed funds coming in to cover running costs, including staffing.
If there are circumstances in which you need to book an additional session 'on the day', you will need to do this within school hours (9am to 3pm), and make your request via the school office. We request that you do this by telephone as emails can be missed. We will then let you know whether we have spaces available and pass on the information to the ASC Play Leader.
Any changes to ASC bookings (cancellations, additions) with more than 48 hours' notice can be made directly to ASC using the email address ASC@sibford-gower.oxon.sch.uk or by speaking in person to Mrs Coffey, our Play Leader.
Any changes with less than 48 hours' notice should be made through the school office and either in person or by telephone so that you are sure your message has been received and we can ensure it is passed on to ASC staff. Except in the most exceptional of circumstances, these will be charged at full session rate.
On the occasion of illness, credits will be carried over - to be used within that existing term.
For Safeguarding reasons, any child booked into ASC will not be allowed to board the school bus or released into the care of another adult without us having received notification of the change of plans from their parent/carer.
Payment must be made in advance of children attending the Club, and at the time of booking.
Cheques should be made payable to Warriner MAT Sibford Primary School and we are also able to accept Childcare vouchers towards your child's care. Please contact the school office: office.3005@sibford-gower.oxon.sch.uk or 01295 780270 for further details.
Please note - If your child has not attended the After School Care facility before, you will need to complete the various registration forms - available from the school office or printable from the attachment below -before your child is able to attend.
