OOSC Open October Half Term

Dear parent /carer

 

Following the expression of interest form shared with parents a few weeks ago, we have decided to open Out of School Club for October half term.  Though there are difficulties for us to overcome in opening and staffing the club in the current climate, we appreciate that a number of our families rely on this service.  But we will NOT be opening OOSC during the two week Christmas holiday, as due to how OOSC staffing is having to be organised, all OOSC staff will have annual leave to take.  

 

The club will be open from Monday 26th to Friday 30th October from 7.30am-5.30pm at a rate of £27.50 per day.  As the club will need to be staffed consistently throughout the day, we are unable to offer the usual flexibility of half day rates.  However, you will be able to drop off or collect your child at any time within the above hours.

 

As we anticipate there will be lower numbers accessing the club than during term time, we will be combining some of the usual bubble groups.  The club will be held in the following locations for October half term holiday only:

  • Nursery, Reception and Year 1 in the KEEP
  • Years 2 to 6 in the OOSC

Please drop off and collect your children from the relevant entrances.

 

Booking for the club is now open in School Gateway.  Just go to clubs and select ‘OOSC Holiday Club’ to pay and make your booking.  A maximum of 30 places are available for each session.  

 

As with all holiday clubs, there will be no refund for any sessions you later wish to cancel.  We do not anticipate the need to cancel the club, but if we should need to for any reason, you will be refunded for all sessions you have booked.  

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with one of our Childcare Leads (Vicki and Leanne) on 0191 2708889 or oosc@kingedward.org.  

 

Yours sincerely
