They also know when to step back so that children can lead their own play and learning. Children and staff engage in rich conversations, helping to develop children's language skills. Children chat amongst themselves about their experiences at school, as they create and decorate Christmas cards and make baubles. They use a wide selection of materials and show their creativity. Children say they enjoy attending the club, because they can play with their school friends and choose what they play with. There is lots of laughter and giggles as the children enjoy their play and have fun.

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children have strong attachments to staff. They enjoy each other's company, having fun together and sharing experiences. Children of all ages play well together. Older children are positive role models, ensuring younger children are fully included in their conversations and games. This helps children develop positive attitudes and respect the needs of others. Children make lots of decisions about what they do. They thoroughly enjoy being active and participate in many interactive games and activities. Children demonstrate how they share and take turns during their play. Parents comment on how well the staff help children develop their social skills. They are also pleased that children form secure relationships with others and develop their self-confidence. Staff constantly promote a healthy lifestyle to all children.
