Introducing our Adventure Programme

Our breakfast and after-school programmes are not your ordinary out-of-school-hours clubs…

Rise then Shine

Our morning programmes are now called ‘Rise Then Shine’, the perfect start to your child’s school day! Welcoming children aged 2 – 11, we set the tone for a great day at school through an array of energising activities and some delicious and nutritious food. From delightful breakfast moments to calming morning meditations, we ensure they step into school ready to embrace the day!

Our Rise then Shine clubs are open every day of the academic year from 07:30am until school start time. Our professional teams will escort children from the club to their classes safely.

Stay and Play

The fun continues after school at our ‘Stay and Play’ afternoon programmes. Welcoming children aged 2 – 11, they can dive into more fun activities, building lasting friendships and creating memories beyond the classroom, all before heading home for quality family time.

Our Stay and Play clubs are open every day of the academic year from school finish time until 6 pm. Our professional teams safely escort children from their classrooms to the club at the end of school. With a staff ratio of 1 adult to every 8 children, each child can receive lots of support from the staff team.

The session includes a healthy snack and light children’s tea, with menus varying daily and including seasonal and themed food.
