Children are happy in the club. Younger children are greeted enthusiastically by staff as they are collected from their classroom.

They have access to a variety of stimulating, age- appropriate resources both indoors and in the outdoor area.

Staff implement clear rules and routines. As children transition from the school building and walk to the club, staff remind them of their expectations. Children know that they need to stay together in a group. When they arrive at the club, children place their belongings in a designated area. This gives them a sense of belonging. As children explore the activities on offer, staff give gentle reminders to children, such as taking care of the resources and the environment. Staff use consistent approaches to support children's behaviour, helping them to understand what is expected of them. Subsequently, children behave well.
