Children enjoy their time at this friendly and welcoming out-of-school club. They are happy to meet their friends and familiar staff.

They are eager to go outside, where they run around the playground, safely kicking balls and rolling hoops to each other. Children use paintbrushes of various sizes and paint a pirate ship with water. Children laugh as the water splashes back on their face. Staff extend this activity and ask children if they can write their name or draw a pattern.

n Staff support children's independence skills well. They encourage these by letting children try and do things for themselves before they step in to help. For example, children take the lids off the play dough tubs and open their own snack bags. In addition, staff encourage children to choose what they wish to play with. There is a photo book which has pictures of the toys kept in the storeroom. Children use this book and make decisions as to what toys and activities they wish to play with.
