FACE Before and After School Care

TOAST, A Little Piece of Toast! *

Breakfast Club serves breakfast on request up to 8:25am .. just ask on the day.

Due to high demand our popular afterschool club is fully booked on most evenings this term. We do normally have limited spaces available at Breakfast Club. 

Due to the recent popularity of FACE afterschool we are not taking new children on to our registers at present but if you only require Breakfast Club please contact Sarah Roderick as space might be available.

Booking is required for Breakfast Club or FACE.

Opening Times 

FACE is open every night after a normal school day and last pick up is 6pm.

Breakfast Club starts at 7:45 am and runs to start of school.

A little bit about the club

The price for Breakfast Club is £5.25 without breakfast and £6.25 with breakfast.

The pricings for After School care are charged on an hourly rate. The first hour is £5.50, and the second hour is £4.50. For the final half hour it is £2.25. The total charge for the whole session is £12.25.

Sessions are booked on line using the SchoolMoney website please contact Sarah Roderick, sroderick@farndon.cheshire.sch.uk  , to be added to the booking system (a completed registration form is required). Sessions are booked on a weekly basis, but parents can book in advance for the whole term if they prefer. Booking / cancelling for the following week can take place up until Friday morning but then it is closed to allow us to complete the registers. Where the place is then not needed, there will be a cancellation fee of £5.50 . The school accept emergency only bookings in the current week at an extra cost. For FACE it is charged at £13.50 a session and for Breakfast club £8.25.The availability of places, especially an emergency place, is not guaranteed as the session requested may be full.

Payment

We accept Tax Free Vouchers (get the Government to give you £2 on top of every £8 you spend)  https://www.gov.uk/tax-free-childcare  Please inform Sarah Roderick before making a payment with Tax Free Vouchers as we do not receive any notifications.

Payment can be made by card via SchoolMoney and we accept child care vouchers from many different providers.

Operation & Ethos

 We are primarily a play club and defend the rights of a child to experience, learn and develop through free choice play, art and design, within the parameters of respect and a few key rules to keep us all safe and happy.

Infant children are brought along to FACE by a member of school staff and older children make their own way once their teacher allows them to go. Breakfast Club drop off and FACE pick up are via the main school entrance (near the school office window).

Allergens & Food Intolerences

Please keep us up to date with any allergies or food intolerences so that we can ensure that any snacks offered to your child are suitable. We ask to be informed of any issues at the time of registration, school has set procedures for notification and we get updated with these changes once a year. To make sure that your child is not put at risk please inform Sarah Roderick as soon as there is any change in intolerences and allergies. Please inform Breakfast Club/ FACE staff of any allergies or intolerences if you are expecting your child to eat or drink with us or, if they may suffer a very severe allergic reaction, and you suspect that they may come in contact with that substance at our club.

Breakages

Sadly due to a lack of respect being shown by some children FACE/BC will now be charging for any breakages that are caused by a lack of respect for the toys or a deliberate act. Parents will either be charged or they can volunteer to replace the equipment with an item of similar quality.

FACE and Breakfast Club are part of the Extended Services for Farndon Primary and are included in several whole School policies. However, some policies are specific to the FACE Club and are accessible on this page. There is a Governor Sub Committee that regularly meets to discuss the management and effective running of the School's extended service and review these policies when it is necessary.

FACE and Breakfast Club are insured alongside Farndon School via the Cheshire West & Chester Council Insurance umbrella. Please contact the school bursar for more details.
