Children are happy and settled at this setting. Staff collect children from their classrooms at the end of the day and accompany them to the designated room in the school. Children are excited as they enter, searching out their friends and showing interest in the activities available to them.

Staff value children's opinions and, as such, children view the setting as 'their' club.
