Staff understand their roles and responsibilities, and the procedures to follow to help protect children from harm. They implement thorough procedures for the safe management of the club. This includes completing daily checks and risk assessments to ensure the premises are safe and secure. Parents are very positive about the club and state their children are very happy to attend. Staff work effectively with parents and provide them with information about the club and the activities their children are involved in.

Staff plan activities indoors and outside, to ensure that children of all ages have access to toys and activities that interest them. Staff notice the emerging interests of children and playfully engage all of them to build on their learning and adapt activities to provide further challenge. Children become confident learners as they make choices about what they want to play with and when. They continue to develop their skills, in preparation for the next stage in their learning.
