ORGANISATION
Based at Donisthorpe Primary School, we run a breakfast club from 7.30am until the start of school, Monday to Friday, and an afterschool club from the end of school until 6.00pm, Monday to Friday, during term time. The hub has a indoor play space, access to toilets and kitchen facilities. We also have access to the school’s playground, apparatus and playing field. AIMS At our club, we aim to provide a stimulating environment where young people can feel happy, healthy, and safe, before and after school. Our club aims to be accessible to all children and families from the school, from Reception (from 9th September onwards, to allow for settling-in time in school) through to Year 6. WHAT WE OFFER Children are free to choose activities as they wish. There will always be a selection of resources available, including board games, puzzles, card games, small world sets, construction kits, reading materials, and arts and crafts. In addition to this, we have focus activities, which the children help to plan, based on notable dates and current interests. Our bank of resources will grow, based on ideas provided by the children. WHAT WE PROVIDE The club recognises the importance of healthy nutrition and aims to meet individual dietary requirements and parental preferences wherever possible. We use fresh ingredients and follow statutory guidelines. Our breakfast club provides toast and a range of cereals, and we rotate extra options such as crumpets, bagels, and breakfast muffins. Fruit juices and milk are on offer with breakfast, along with drinking water. After school we offer a light tea, sandwiches, wraps, toast and toppings etc. This snack is not a meal replacement but will provide much needed energy for the session. Squash is available with our afterschool snack, and fresh drinking water is always available during sessions. We value providing a calm and friendly atmosphere around the food table. To promote independence, we encourage the children to clear away after themselves, where they can. Children are encouraged to eat breakfast as soon as they join us, to allow time to play afterwards. We stop serving breakfast at 8.10am, to give staff time to pack away. A light tea is available at 4.15pm, so those who join after another club can still eat with us. Children will unfortunately not be permitted to bring their own food to the sessions to avoid issues with allergies. Please feel free to discuss our food options with a member of staff if you have any questions or requests. |
