The cost is £7.50 per session which includes breakfast. Payments must be made via ParentPay. Places are limited so sessions must be booked in advance.

Our Holiday Club is very popular and places are limited due to availability of staff. Children take part in fun activities such as visits to soft play and sensory rooms, cinema trips, swimming, animal therapy, bouncy castles and inflatable assault courses as well as making use of our wonderful facilities here at school. Parents are invited to request places via an online form which is sent out a few weeks before each holiday period. Places are then allocated but are not confirmed until payments have been received. Priority is given to Breaktime users as we are funded through this scheme. The cost is £18 per day for Break Time users. Families who are not eligible for Break Time because they are in receipt of a social care package or direct payments for your child may access the club by paying the full cost of £110 per day or should speak to their social worker about accessing the club through Break Time Plus. This can only be accessed via an agreement through Children’s Social Care, and so we advise that you speak to your social worker ASAP should you wish to pursue this option.
