After School Club

After School Club - Canopy

Canopy Club is an after school club run by experienced play leaders and resourced with quality play resources.  The aim of the club is to provide the children with an environment where they can unwind, relax, seek support with school work and have fun with friends. The club runs from the end of school until 6pm with parents being able to pick up at any convenient time within this time frame.  The provision is open to all children from Nursery through to Year 6.

Canopy Club staff are directly employed by the school and the club is based in The Lodge.  There are opportunities to play inside and outside, dependent on the weather, and include sports, role play, board games, homework help, reading, music, craft and much more. The After School Club Leader is Ms Gwyneth Young.

Children receive a substantial snack, being guided by the school’s healthy school status. All dietary requirements can be catered for.
