After School Clubs - Spring Term 2023

Clubsnew

The new list of clubs that we will be running for the whole of the Spring term are detailed on the back of this letter. All clubs will be bookable on the School Gateway and you will be able to select an activity for your child after 3pm on Tuesday 3rd January. You will just need to click on the initial session for your chosen club and your child will then be booked onto this activity for the whole term. On Friday 6th January, you will receive a text confirming which club your child has been allocated.

  • If you are selecting an in-house club that has a charge, this can be found under the ‘Payments’ section of Gateway.
  • If you are selecting a club run by Dynamic Coaching (previously known as Cray Wanderers Community Scheme)/Gymtazia please click on the relevant link in the main body of the email to book your place and pay for a block of sessions. Please note these links won’t be live until Tuesday 3rd January and bookings/payments for these clubs aren’t processed by the school – the bookings are overseen by the companies who run them.

Please ensure all current debts have been cleared before booking, or your child may lose their allocated place.

If you are not registered for the School Gateway, please contact a member of the office staff and they will be happy to help you. All clubs will be on a first come first served basis, so it is really important that you have access to the School Gateway.

Clubs will commence the week starting Monday 9th January and will run every week (excluding w/c 6th February due to Parents’ Evenings) until Friday 31st March, unless otherwise stated. Once your child’s place has been confirmed on a club, you do not need to book them on weekly, they will automatically be expected to attend for the whole term.

As there are a limited number of places for each club, please only select one club, this will allow for places to be distributed fairly. If more than one club is chosen, your child will be removed from all clubs and you will have to reapply.

Preference will be given to children who:

  • Have an attendance percentage above 95%
  • Continually arrive to school by 8.55am
  • Are up to date with dinner money/debt payments
  • Continually follow the behaviour policy
  • Have been picked up on time when attending previous clubs

Due to safeguarding, parents will not be permitted to wait on school grounds for after school clubs to finish. Parents will be expected to wait outside the main gate until five minutes before their child’s club ends. All clubs will be dismissed via the main school hall (with the exception of Football Club, which will be dismissed via the field gate).

Please remind yourself of our after school club policy below:

After school club policy

  • Once a place on the club is accepted, your child has made a commitment to attend regularly
  • If your child misses two sessions, their place will be allocated to another child
  • Parents/Carers are obliged to collect their child promptly from the allocated pick up point at the end of each club
  • If your child is continually picked up late, it will result in them having to leave the club
  • Please make sure you are aware which procedures are in place if your child’s club is affected by bad weather. Knowing this will avoid unnecessary telephone calls to the school office
