After School
Catering for School Age Children (SAC) 5-12 years - Can cater for Pre School children 3-5 years (depends on ratios)
Our After School team will collect your child from school and walk to after school next door.
At after school, all children can unwind in a relaxed, safe and fun, home from home environment which is part of the community. Our after school and programme of activities plays an important role in the social and emotional development of children and is not intended to be an extension of the school day. Our programmes are child led and we have a wide range of creative and physical activities that children can tap into throughout the afternoon. Our team of specialised educators who are Garda vetted provide a best practice activity plan ensuring that each child’s age and abilities and interests are taken into consideration. We offer homework supervision which is a big plus for parents and children as it allows for a more relaxed end to the day for all, however, we do ask that parents check their child’s homework and reading at home as they may not have time to complete it all.
We have a healthy food policy and provide healthy nutritious snacks devised to follow the Department of Health’s Food and Nutritional Guidelines.
Time to unwind and take a snack. Children can avail of fruit, yogurt, toast cereal at this time. Packed lunch.
Once home work is completed play and having fun and making friends is the priority. Children play freely and also take part in organised play. We have a great outdoors. We encourage all children to come with a change of clothes to keep uniforms clean and appropriate wet and warm gear as it is our policy to go outside every day.
Creative Activities include, Art projects, Speech & Drama, Imagination Games, Music, Singing, Creative writing , Quizzes, crosswords, Board Games, Puzzles, Crafts, Reading, Construction games and cookery. Physical Activities will include Obstacle Course, Team Games, Soccer, Tennis, Basketball, Dance, Zumba, yoga, Relay Races, Tag Rugby, GAA and Gardening, with many more depending on the interests in the class.
