Breakfast & After School Club

Gorseybrigg Primary School and Nursery provides high quality out of school child care for our children in the form of a Breakfast and an After School Club. These provide a range of stimulating and creative activities in a safe environment. Our aim is to make sure that everyone is made welcome and valued. We are fully committed to working in partnership with parents/carers to provide high quality, safe and stimulating care, with learning and play opportunities for children of all ages.

The Breakfast and After School Club is staffed by qualified Teaching Assistants and the ratio of staff to children is 1:8. All staff have a current DBS check and first aid training.

The Breakfast and After School club is open to children from Nursery to Year 6.

Breakfast club opens at 7.30am and children will not be allowed entry before this time. Breakfast will be served until 8.15am. Toast and cereal are offered to each child and a drink of juice or water.

At 8.45am KS2 children collect their belongings and go out onto the playground with a member of staff ready to line up for the day when the bell goes. FS/KS1 children or those who are identified as having difficulties will be escorted by club staff and handed over to class teachers.

Children not booked onto breakfast club will be refused entry.

After breakfast the children will then have time to relax, read, play games and prepare for the school day.

The After School Club is in the hall and children are offered a snack and drink on arrival. Snacks consist of a choice from fruit/veg and a range of other snacks such as a small sandwich or biscuit.

The club has a child led approach and will offer pupils a choice of activities throughout each session. The activities will include:

• Art and craft
• Non-contact sport and games on the field/playground
• Films
• Board games
• Reading and time to complete home learning
