St John’s Out of
School Care
- offering professional care by qualified staff at competitive rates
within the safe, familiar environment of the School.
St John’s Out of School Care operates before
and after school care, for children aged from 3 to 13 years, in
it’s own self-contained building within the
school grounds. The Club offers a flexible service, one-off sessions are
available as well as regular bookings, and although the majority of the
children attending the Club come from St John’s First School, we are also
happy to welcome those children from Brewood Middle School who are eligible
for school transport to Bishops Wood and any children who can be transported
to the Club.
Opening times:
Breakfast Club 7.30 –
8.50am
After School Club 3.15 – 6.00pm
Breakfast is provided at no extra cost, similarly a
drink and snack is included during
the afternoon session - the Club encourages healthy
eating, with fruit being available
at all times.
The children are involved in a range of structured and free choice activities. There is a regular programme of sporting activities – this changes each half-term and has included football, judo, short tennis, cricket, rugby, gymnastics, basketball and hockey. There are indoor games and activities, arts and crafts, construction activities, computer games, books and puzzles and (for those who just want to “chill”) TV and videos.
The Club is run by a non-profit-making committee and is registered with Ofsted. The recent Ofsted inspection reported that:
“the children are enthusiastic and self-assured in the Club’s welcoming environment”,
“there is a good, extensive range of resources and equipment which support
children’s
development and leisure activities”
“children use their initiative, are encouraged to think for themselves and use their own ideas”.
