The club is very well structured and children fully understand what is expected of them. For instance, there are clear routines in place for mealtimes and tidying up. Children hang up their coats, use the toilet, wash their hands and fill their water bottles at the start of the session. This helps to promote children's independence. Staff use a welcome circle-time session to introduce children to what is on offer that day and allow time for children to share their news from their day at school. Children behave well. They sit and take turns in listening to their friends.
