This provision meets requirements

Children say they enjoy attending the club. Staff regularly gather children's views about what they like to do. Children happily talk about how they feel involved in the choice of activities and resources on offer to them. They form good bonds with each other and staff and eagerly talk to each other while they play. For example, they discuss the pizzas they make out of play dough and the different 'toppings' they are creating. Staff support children in building on what they learn during their time in school. For example, children challenge themselves to practise writing larger numbers. They confidently talk to staff about how do this and then wriggle with delight as they achieve their aims. Staff are skilled at supporting children's emotional well-being. However, there is not a place consistently offered to children who may need a quiet time, for example. Older children enjoy carrying out tasks which provide them with a sense of responsibility. For instance, older children

n Children enjoy thinking about leading a healthy lifestyle while at the club. They proudly show place mats they have made with drawings and information about different fruit and vegetables. Talking about the vitamins fruit contain excites them and they confidently make healthy choices at snack time. n The provider supports the professional development of staff. Staff benefit from access to regular training and supervision. They have attended training, for example, on how to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff carefully create an atmosphere where all children are involved at the club and all children are encouraged and supported to take part in all the activities they offer. n Staff provide children with regular opportunities to run around and be physically active. Children climb, play football and enjoy gymnastics. Their physical well- being is consistently supported.

n Parents praise the staff and provider. They say they are kept well informed about the different activities offered, for example, through the regular newsletter they receive. They say their children look forward to attending the club and are keen to talk about what they have been doing. n Staff are kind, warm and caring. They encourage children to carry out simple tasks. For example, all children happily join in tidying away their resources before snack time and make sure they wash their hands before eating. Staff, and children, regularly risk assess to help them make sure any hazards are identified and removed.

7 November 2019 n Children enjoy a range of experiences based on their varied interests. They discuss and negotiate when activities are being planned and vote on their choices. Children have explored road safety, talked about the environment and the effects of plastics, and created fundraising activities for charities they have chosen. n Children engage well with the activities offered. However, there is scope to improve opportunities for children who wish to engage in quiet time at the end of a busy day, to enable them to rest and support their emotional well-being even further. n Staff talk confidently about how they support children in thinking about how their behaviour affects others. They have strategies in place to help children manage their feelings and children respond positively to the high expectations staff have of them. For instance, children enjoy time to eat together, engage in lively conversations and build on their social skills. Staff are good role models for
