Breakfast Club

At Headley Park we are proud to offer parents the opportunity for their children to attend the Breakfast Club which is open from 8am until the start of the school day. Breakfast is served up to 8:20. Breakfast club closes at 8.20 for arrivals.

In addition to a breakfast children get the chance for indoor games/ dancing and if the weather is good the chance to play outside.

Medical experts and educationalists have long held the view that eating a healthy breakfast is essential for children’s performance at school, staying healthy and maintaining a healthy body weight. Breakfast provides the ideal opportunity for children to take in plenty of the essential nutrients that the body needs each day by eating bread, other cereals, fruits and vegetables, which are all important elements of a healthy and balanced diet.

Our Breakfast Club supervisors work to ensure that the food options available to the children can provide essential nutrient requirements, many of which, if missed at breakfast, are unlikely to be compensated for at other meals throughout the day.

We are very aware that in the busy world we live in many parent/carers find breakfast a difficult time and children may not be ready to eat before leaving home. We also want to support those parents who are entitled to pupil premium and may find the cost of providing breakfast difficult.

Breakfast Club operates a booking system via Arbor. Please book via Arbor by 3pm on Thursday the week before you would like to attend. Bookings are only confirmed by booked and paid for in advance. Please note there is a maximum limited of pupils and we may not be able to accommodate your booking.

Please note that you may be refused entry if not booked and other requirements will be put in place for those who persistently arrive without booking (or paying in advance for the booking).

Cost

The cost per child is £6.00 per day after school. We would encourage you to have someone who can step in to pick up your child if you are likely to be delayed beyond 5.45pm (Monday to Thursday and 4.30pm Friday), if late there is a £20 initial fine plus of £1 for every minute beyond this time.  Please note that this cost has not increased in over 6 years and is currently being reviewed.  

Booking is via your Arbor account and should be booked by 3pm the Thursday before the week of your booking.

Cancellations

If you need to cancel an after school session, we will need one weeks notice, otherwise you will still be charged the full rate. Please email finance@headleypark.bristol.sch.uk

Absence

If your child is absent from school and will not be attending after school club, please inform us at the start of the school day.
