Children enter the holiday club enthusiastically. Parents and children approach the entrance, where staff sign children into the club. Staff are engaging, they greet children warmly. Children happily wave goodbye to their parents. They show excitement as they join in with a variety of games in the tennis courts. Staff follow safety protocols. For example, they speak with parents at drop off and ask who will be collecting. Staff record this information. This ensures that children are kept safe and leave with the correct adult. At the end of the drop off period the gates are locked to ensure that the premises remain secure.
