Bees After School Club
St Bernadette's fun and popular After School Club runs from 3.15pm (end of school day) until 5.30pm, Monday to Friday, term time only.
Our After School Club provides a safe, secure and relaxed environment, offering a range of fun activities to reflect the interests of the children in our care.
We offer a range of resources and activities, including construction, role play, art and crafts, board games, den-making and lots of outdoor games and free play.
We provide several meal, snack and drink options at our club. Children are encouraged to drink water but we also have squash and milk available.
We recognise the importance of healthy nutrition for children delivered in a calm, friendly setting. We will always cater for vegetarians, but please inform us of any dietary requirements your child has. Examples of light meals provided are: toast, cereal, wraps, beans on toast, carrot and cucumber sticks with dips, and cheese and crackers.
We use fresh ingredients and follow statutory guidelines. We meet individual dietary requirements and parental preferences where possible.
