Out of school club

To use the Breakfast and Afterschool Club facilities in the Preschool building you need to email us on preschool@wppreschool.co.uk and we will take some details about your child (name, d.o.b.) and the email you would like us to use.

We will send you a link to EYLog and you will need to download the EYLog parent app to be able to make your own bookings.

Before we can take any bookings you will need to complete a registration form and add at least 3 emergency contacts.

To cancel any sessions you must email the preschool giving 7 days notice. You cannot cancel any sessions yourself using EYLog.

You must book any sessions you require 7 days before you need them. This is to ensure we have enough staffing and have enough food for everyone.

You can only book 31 days in advance. If you would like the whole term booked in regular days please email us and we can do it for you.

We have limited places and we might have reached our limit of children  we are allowed in.

We invoice you in arrears at the end of the month, we will give you a week to pay your bill.

Please pay your bill promptly as it takes us away from the children when we have to remind you about late payments.

We accept cash, bank transfer and vouchers. We no longer accept cheques.

Yes, details of the schemes we are registered with are in the payment section.

We offer the children a light snack straight after school in case they are hungry and to put off any hunger until they get home.

Your child should have their full tea/dinner at home with you, as mealtimes are a great time for families to spend time together after a busy day.

We are aware of cultural, vegan / vegetarian needs as well as allergies. Please inform us on the registration form but make sure you ring us or email us to make doubly sure we fully understand your child’s needs.

No. We send you an accident report to inform you of any minor bump, fall or scrape your child may have had. If it was a serious accident we would telephone you.

Yes, if they want to, we have quiet spaces to allow them to concentrate. However this is child’s choice, if they would prefer to play or do something else after a hard day at school that’s what they will do.

No. The children have access to all of the equipment and resources and choose themselves what they would like to do. We sometimes will suggest an activity if the children struggle to think of their own. We have craft supplies, table top games, gardening, outdoor play, construction and many more resources.

Yes. We have been informed they have the same level of security as banks do.

Generally no, however if we have a safeguarding concern we are bound by our policies and procedures and must follow the law. This means sometimes we may share your details with relevant authorities. We will never sell your details or pass them onto the general public.

We do pass on information regarding your child to the school they attend or the school they will attend in September.

Yes. All of the school clubs finish at different times, this make it impossible for us to create a system that meets all of the times. We have kept our costs as low as possible so we ask you to book your child into the session their club ends or starts.

The one exception is swimming as they usually return to school just before 4pm, so book them in from the 4pm slot.

We have many policies and procedures in place during normal times but these have greatly increased during the pandemic. We have many more risk assessments and additional cleaning in between sessions of preschool and Out of School Club. We also end the day with a deep clean as well as extra cleaning when needed throughout the sessions.

We meet the ‘System of Controls’ set out by the government which include good ventilation. We separate the children into Key Stages during meal times and they use their own toilets. We are constantly reflecting upon our practice and altering it when the government guidelines change.
