This provision meets requirements

Children arrive happily after school and quickly settle into their chosen activities. They take part in a wide range of enjoyable activities, which complement their day at school well. For example, the Reception-class children play rocket-themed board games and complete planet jigsaws, linking with their superheroes topic in school. Children are confident to engage in purposeful conversations with staff. They use their imaginations well as they role play with friends. For example, they pretend to buy and sell items at their role-play café. Children take responsibility for their own activities and are given ample opportunities to make their ideas come to life. This helps them develop a strong sense of belonging.

This provision meets requirements

Children are proud to help raise money to support local and international causes as they develop their understanding of and empathy for others. For example, they take part in enterprise events as they make items to sell. The money is being raised to help build a school in Africa. Children of all ages happily share, and involve each other in their games. Older children use their knowledge and experience to teach the younger ones new skills. For example, they stand with and support the younger children to hold the hockey stick the correct way and hit the ball. They cheer and congratulate each other when they successfully hit the target. This builds the children's self-confidence and self-esteem.
