After School Care
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 3-6 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.
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. pizza and salad, beans on toast, wraps or pasta, 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 is run every school day 3-6 pm (apart from occasional school events that prevent the use of facilities).
Charges and Payments
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, 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.
Parents should not contact the Play Leader about additional bookings directly.
The current charging structure is as follows:
Advanced Booking Late Booking
Charge per 3 hour session (3 – 6 pm)
£12 £13.50
Charge per 2 hour session (3 – 5 pm)
£9 £10.50
*Cubs session (includes a supervised walk to village hall at 5.30pm)
£12 £13
*Beavers session 3 – 4pm (includes a supervised walk to village hall)
£7 £8
*only if meeting is at village hall
To receive the lower rate of charge (Advanced Booking), forms must be received by the date advised on the booking form each term.
Payment must be made in advance of children attending the Club, and at the time of booking.
On the occasion of illness, credits will be carried over - to be used within that existing term.
Any cancellations, within 48 hours of a booked session, will be charged at full session rate.
Recurring (more than 2 per term) late pick ups (anything after 6pm) will be charged an additional £4 per child.
This is to cover the cost of staff overtime.
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.
