Happy Days offer extended day care for your children from the end of the school day until 6.00pm.
After a long day at school, it is our intention to allow the children to relax and feel at home in a fun, safe environment, where we offer a range of age appropriate activities with lots of choice, creating many opportunities for fun and social interaction. Our dedicated team understand the importance of encouraging free play which is child directed. The more involved the adult becomes, the less free the play actually is. In order to really be free play, it needs to be child directed. Of course, staff are always happy to join in with play, if required. We make full use of our outdoor space (weather permitting).
At Jubilee Walk staff wait inside the school building to collect Key Stage I children before walking them back to the Happy Days building via the playground. Key Stage II children make their way to the school hall for After School Club.
At Hermitage Drive a member of staff waits at school with a register and our Key Stage I children are handed over by their teacher. Our Key Stage II children make their own way to the Happy Days building. A register is taken upon arrival.
Children do NOT leave the school gates on making their way to us. A register is once again taken when they arrive at Happy Days.
A healthy varied snack is offered to all children when they arrive at Happy Days.
