This provision meets requirements

Children understand staff's behaviour expectations. Staff provide gentle reminders, when necessary, to help children remember and understand the club rules. For example, staff remind children to use walking feet inside. They encourage children to join in activities and remind them to wait their turn when needed. This supports children to build respect for one another and shows them how to be kind to their friends. Children tell one another who is taking the next kick and pass the ball to their friends to give them a turn. Children demonstrate positive friendships with one another as they call 'goodbye' and wave to their friends as they leave the club. Children learn how to keep themselves safe. Staff talk to the children and explain why they need to tuck their chairs under so they do not trip over them.
