A Typical After School Care Day

We follow a general routine to give each day structure

Calm and relaxed environment
​No two days are exactly the same at our After School Care programme, but we do follow a general routine to give each day structure. This approach helps create a calm and relaxed environment, especially when the children arrive on location, as well as ensures that all children feel comfortable and know how to behave and what to expect.
