WRAPAROUND FOR EARLY YEARS PUPILS

Wraparound Care is available to pupils in Nursery and Reception between 2.30pm and 4pm only for safeguarding reasons.

EARLY BIRDS – Year 1 to Year 6 Only

Our Early Bird sessions run from 7.30am up until school begins at 8.30am and are available for girls in Year 1 to Year 6. A designated wraparound care doorbell is located at the Whitehouse entrance. The sessions are a warm and calm space from which the girls can seamlessly transition into a focused day of school. 

LATE OWLS – Year 1 to Year 6 Only

Late Owls sessions are a nourishing space for girls in Year 1 to Year 6 to unwind after a busy school day. During each session the girls are invited to take part in a variety of relaxing activities, including arts and crafts and reading. Fresh fruit is available for the girls to snack on. Sessions run from the end of the school day until 5.30pm Monday to Thursday and until 5.00pm on Fridays. It is also possible for girls to join at the end of their after school club. 

We kindly request that you adhere to the scheduled pick-up time in accordance with your booking. The girls will be dismissed from the Queen’s Gate exit. Should you need to arrive earlier, please proceed to the main school entrance. 

WRAPAROUND BOOKING

All sessions can be booked below: 

Due to staffing and ratio levels, there are a limited number of places on offer and will be allocated on a first come first basis. The provision can be used on an ad hoc basis (minimum of 12 hours prior notice) or as a long-term booking (maximum of a term). The booked session will need to be paid for regardless of attendance. Refunds or carrying over of unattended sessions will not be possible.  

Sessions can be booked in 30 min increments at the rate of £10 an hour. 

We kindly request that you read the FAQ before booking any sessions.  

FAQs

Can I book multiple sessions at one time? 

Yes, you can book multiple sessions or recurring dates at the same time.  When you select the date and time, a drop-down facility will give you this option if required.

Can I book a session on the day that I need it? 

The cut-off point to book a session is at midnight on the previous day. You will not be able to make bookings using the booking system thereafter. Emails sent to class teachers/office or phone calls made to the office will not be honoured. This is because we must adhere to staff ratios, and need at least 12 hours to be able to ensure that we have the correct number of staff present.  

If I cancel a session in advance will I be refunded? 

Unfortunately, we cannot offer refunds on any unattended sessions. We ask that you take your time to check dates before booking. We will also not have the capacity to transfer or carry over any sessions. 

Can I pick up my child at any time? 

Yes, you may pick up your child before the end of the designated slot. We do ask that those using the Late Owls sessions arrive at the school no later than 5.30pm Monday to Thursday, and 5.00pm on Friday.
