SUNRISE BREAKFAST CLUB
For parents who need their children to come to school early we have a school based Sunrise Breakfast Club. This opens at 07:30 in the school hall and costs £3.50 per child per day. The children are then escorted into school to start their day. Please do not allow your children to come into the playground before 08:45 unaccompanied as the area is not supervised by school adults before this time.
 

SUNSET AFTER SCHOOL CLUB
For parents who need wraparound care, we have a school based Sunset Club. This has a two tiered payment structure and charges £4.50 until 4.30pm and £9 until 6pm. All payments are made via school spider.
