After-School Clubs; including music tuition, other external clubs and providers
With Covid-19 restrictions lifting we are now able to offer after school clubs once again. This will of course be reviewed in light of the governments 'Road Map' continuing to meet its 4 key principles.
It has now been over a year where children have not been able to attend any after school clubs so we are very pleased to be able to work with a variety of companies to provide a much broader range of clubs than before. Please see below for further details:
