We are open every weekday during term time except school PD days and emergency closures.

Morning sessions run from 07:30 until school starts at 08.45, when children are handed over to their class teacher by the Lark’s staff.

Afternoon sessions run from 15:30 to 17:30.  All children will be dropped at Owls by the class teacher, after other children have been dismissed.  If your child is attending an after-school activity, they will be escorted to Owls by the leader of the after-school activity.

At Larks, there will be juice, milk or water available to drink. The children will have the option of toast (with various spreads/jams) and a range of healthy cereals. There will be fruit/vegetables available. 

In Owls, there will be juice, milk or water available to drink. The children will have the option of sandwiches, bagels (with various spreads/jams), yogurt and fruit/vegetables will be available.

These are relaxed and flexible in a calm and comfortable environment, recognising that children need to unwind and relax after the school day.  They can choose whether they wish to join in with a range of planned, structured activities both indoor and outdoor, such as those involving sport, or choose quiet reading and board games.  There will be some themed nights linked to curriculum topics, current events and special days and staff will take the lead from the children’s own interests.  

Please book via the Arbor Portal/App. 

Bookings will ideally be made at least one week before the session is required.

Fees must be paid in advance

Burrough Green C of E Primary Academy reserves the right to withdraw the place from your child and refuse further bookings following non-payment of fees.

Help with Childcare Costs

We want to make wraparound childcare as affordable as possible for families. You may be able to reduce the cost of breakfast clubs, after-school clubs and holiday childcare through government support schemes.

Tax-Free Childcare

If you are a working parent, you may be eligible for Tax-Free Childcare. For every £8 you pay into your childcare account, the government adds £2, helping you save up to 20% on childcare costs.

Tax-Free Childcare can be used to pay for approved wraparound childcare, including:

• Breakfast clubs
• After-school clubs

Universal Credit Childcare Support

If you receive Universal Credit and are working, you may be able to claim back up to 85% of your childcare costs, including the cost of wraparound childcare.

This support can help make regular childcare more affordable and support parents to remain in or return to work.

Which Scheme Should I Use?

You cannot claim both Tax-Free Childcare and the Universal Credit childcare element for the same childcare costs. The best option depends on your individual circumstances.

We recommend using the Government's Childcare Choices website to find out what support you may be entitled to and compare the options available to you.

If you have any questions about paying for wraparound childcare, please contact us and we will be happy to help.

Children will need to be collected from the side entrance.  Once there, press the doorbell on the gate and wait for a member of staff.  There will be an additional charge of £5 for pick-ups that are more than five minutes late.

Our wrap-around-care services will adopt the school’s policies and procedures.  Children are expected to respect the ethos and values of the school while attending these clubs as they would during the school day.

All staff are First Aid trained.  Any minor accidents or incidents will be dealt with and parents will be notified on collection.  Parents/carers will be contacted immediately should the child need to be taken home or receive further medical treatment.

The safety and wellbeing of your child is of paramount importance to us.  Our Headteacher, Mr David Sandford is our designated safeguarding lead and in his absence any issues should be reported directly to Mr John Turner or Mrs Sara Lawford
