Wrap Around Care

At Laughton All Saints’, we understand the needs of working parents and are proud to deliver our own Wraparound Care Package, tailored to the requirements of our school community.

Our Wraparound Care is provided on our school site and all clubs are ran by experienced and established school staff members. This means they know your children incredibly well, as they work in school full time, and adapt activities to suit your child’s interests and needs.

Our various offerings start at 8:00am and finish at 17:20pm.

 

Breakfast Club

Our very popular Breakfast Club has been running for many years and supports many families on a daily basis. The sessions begin at 8:00am until 8:45am, where the children are then escorted to their classes by the staff. Parent/carers can drop their children off at any time after 8:00am.

A continental-style breakfast is available for children to choose from, with options of:

  • A selection of cereals
  • Toast (with a number of delicious toppings)
  • Brioche / croissants
  • A selection of fruit
  • Yoghurt
  • Juices / water

The sessions are run by Mr Robinson, who ensures that the children have a level of care, nurture and energy that is consistent with the school and its expectations and values. During this time, Mr Robinson provides a range of activities, including imaginative play, reading, arts/crafts, puzzles, construction and board games.

The cost of Breakfast Club, as of September 2022, is £3.00 per day, per child. Breakfast Club bookings are done through Arbor and should be paid for prior to arrival.

 

Extended After School Club

Our new Extended After School Club is held between 3:20pm and 5:20pm during term time and was introduced in September 2022 to help working families and support with childcare challenges.

The sessions are run by Mrs Bridden who has an absolute commitment to providing the very best of care for your children, entertaining and nurturing them throughout the sessions. She gives the children a level of care that is consistent with the school’s expectations and values. Our desire is for children to have fun but also rest if they need to, and for parents to be reassured that their children are well supervised and enjoying their after-school time.

Children prepare their own healthy snack and eat family-style around a table with the other children to chat about their day and share stories. Snacks can be a selection from:

  • Sandwiches, with a variety of fillings
  • Vegetable sticks
  • Toasties
  • Hot dogs

A variety of activities are planned for each day, with the interests and age of the children attending being taken into account. The children take part in a full range of activities, such as baking, arts and crafts, Lego, role play, sewing, construction, sports and games such as bingo or beetle drive.

The cost of Extended After School Club is £7.50 per session, per child. Bookings are made through Arbor and should be paid for prior to the session.

 

Reviews from parents:

"My daughter has attended a few of the extended after school club sessions and each time has come out beaming and on cloud 9. She has absolutely loved them and had such a happy, relaxed and safe time after school. Options like this are so important for our family and have taken the pressure off the work/ life / school juggle. Added in how easy and convenient it is to book in makes it a brilliant option. To know our daughter is safe and happy whilst we juggle work and other commitments is incredibly valuable to us. I wanted to say a special thanks to Mrs Bridden for her creativity in the activities and her nurturing , fun approach. Thank you to the school for offering this.”

If your child is not collected at the end of their booked session, then you will be charged an additional £1.80 (approximately 30 minutes cost).

If you are late picking up after 5:50pm, you will incur a £5:00 charge for each 15mins you are overdue.
