At Wrenthorpe, we believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and our Breakfast Club gives children the best start to the day and that after-school clubs are a fundamental part of the school day and our wider offer for the curriculum.
Breakfast Club runs every day of the school year from 7:30am – 8:45am, and offers flexibility to parents to support with employment, childcare and at a very competitive rate. Breakfast Club is run and managed by a dedicated team of staff, who all also support children in school during the day in a different capacity, so there is always a familiar adult waiting to greet children with a smile. As well as offering breakfast, reading support, and school work support, we also offer sports activities every morning with one of our partner organisations – all at no additional cost!
We are incredibly proud of our after-school club offer. After-schools clubs not only give children the opportunity to develop a new passion or skill or provide exit routes for progression, but give children the chance to work with a range of different children and staff. If you’d like to know anything else about after-school clubs, please speak to the school office.
