After School Care is provided at Water Street C.P School by Out & About Skipton Ltd, an Ofsted registered childcare provider. Booking and enquiries regarding After School Care should be made directly to Helen Johnson - contact details are at the bottom of this page.
Out & About Skipton Ltd runs at Water Street straight from school until 6.20 pm every school day.
Staff collect children from their classrooms and bring them to the club. Older children meet in the Year 1 classroom area to meet staff and register.
If your child is in Reception Class, this year then I (Helen Johnson) will be your child's key worker. This means that I will be your main contact and will try to be their familiar person, who knows them the best and will help them to settle in as quickly as possible.
We have eight members of staff in total, three of which are qualified teachers, including me. Four members of our staff have full Paediatric First Aid, and we all care about making sure the children that attend our club are happy and safe.
Once all the children arrive, we take a register and then have tea straight away. Tea is accompanied every day with salad and fruit, and usually a home baked dessert. Once the children have eaten, staff will then offer a range of child led and adult initiated activities both inside and out. The children are encouraged to relax and play together with our help.
It is just as important to us that you as parents feel happy and settled as soon as possible too and it helps the children to settle easily if we can build a friendly relationship. Please ask if there is anything we can do; we will try and make ourselves available at pick-up time wherever possible.
Every month we send out an invoice, this will come to your email address. Payment is expected at the beginning of the month, and all payment information will be on the invoice you receive. I am happy to accept payment through childcare vouchers. If you don’t yet use childcare vouchers please visit https://www.gov.uk/tax-free-childcare for further information.
A registration form must be completed for each new child before they can attend the Out & About. This will be sent when your child is offered a place.
For further information or to register your child please email Helen.
