Inspection of JC Sports Holiday Camps at Yapton CE Primary School Yapton C of E School, North End Road, Yapton, ARUNDEL BN18 0DU

p.1

This provision meets requirements

Children are greeted warmly as they arrive at the camp. Staff are kind and friendly. They use their skills to get to know the children and to help make them feel at ease. This is particularly effective for those children attending the camp for the first time. Staff understand the range of activities that children enjoy. They adapt the camp programme to cater for each child's interests and play needs. This supports children to develop a sense of belonging and enjoy their time at the camp.

This provision meets requirements

Staff are very good role models. They are patient and calm. This influences the way children behave both towards each other and how they treat the resources. Staff encourage children to join in with group activities, to take turns and to be kind to their friends. Well-planned large group activities enable the children to work in a team and quickly forge new friendships. Staff support children to develop their confidence around other children by gently encouraging them to say their name out loud. They praise children for trying hard and taking part in new, unfamiliar activities. Children's self-esteem is high as staff and other children cheer them on during a ring game. Children relish in their own achievements and eagerly 'high- five' a member of staff.

n Leaders have a good overview of the provision. Regular supervision meetings with staff enable the leadership team to discuss any training needs. Leaders complete regular check-ins, which allow staff to discuss the programme of events or voice any concerns. Ongoing training opportunities for the staff are available throughout the year, which includes discussions concerning safeguarding. Staff say that they feel very well supported in their roles and are encouraged to bring their own ideas and opinions to the provision. This makes them feel valued in their work. n Overall, staff implement the planning of activities well. Children know the timetable for the day, which helps them to understand what will be happening next. This supports their emotional well-being effectively. However, on occasion, the organisation of some activities does not fully support children's needs, such as having to wait for a break during a sports game to be able to access a drink

of water. Despite this, children's engagement and enjoyment during activities is very high. n Staff provide activities and initiate discussions that nurture children's interests and engagement. For example, children describe the presents that they received and the foods that they ate over the Christmas period. They become animated as they share information about a favourite game they played. Staff encourage children to contribute suggestions for games at the camp. This helps support

30 December 2024 children's motivation to take part and helps them to feel listened to. n Children demonstrate that they feel safe in the staff's warm care. They learn to follow the routines with confidence as they are encouraged to independently put their own belongings away. Staff remind children about the camp rules. Children develop an awareness of how to keep themselves safe. For example, children chant the rule that they must always be able to see 'a blue coat' so that adults know where they are at all times. Children who fall over in the playground demonstrate their confidence and trust as they approach staff for comfort. n A key strength of the camp is the opportunities that are available to children to be physically active and take part in a range of fun activities, both indoors and outdoors. They race around and show their delight as they squeal with excitement when being chased during a group circle game. Staff regularly

support discussion about healthy lifestyles. For example, when children are eating, staff ask questions about the foods that are healthy and unhealthy for our bodies. Children contribute with their own experiences from home. Staff use times like this to talk about the impact that food has on developing a healthy lifestyle. Consequently, children develop an understanding of the positive link between foods, fun games and exercise.
