The Waiting List

CRASH is a very popular club.  It may be that your child will not have a place straight away, but you are welcome to put your child’s name down on the waiting list. 

CRASH operates an advance booking and payment process for holiday sessions.  Please ask a Staff member for a booking form if you are interested as sessions are allocated on a first come, first served basis.  Children who do not attend CRASH after school are welcome to join us for holiday sessions. 

Activities

These are relevant to all age groups and there is a wide choice available.  During term time the emphasis is based on providing a relaxed and comfortable period of time at the end of the school day.  There are books and board games, as well as, art and craft and sporting activities in the school playground.

During school holidays there is a more structured programme to include day trips and outings. We often visit the local parks, cinema, museum and bowling centres. 

Snacks

Snack is provided at after school & holiday sessions. Breakfast is provided at Breakfast Club sessions. CRASH can cater for any special dietary requirements and we will need to know if your child has any known food allergies.

During holidays your child will need to bring a packed lunch.

Arrival and Collection

During after school sessions your child will be collected from the school’s small hall and taken to CRASH, which is based in the school dining room.  We are happy to collect your child from their classroom during their first few sessions.

During holiday sessions you can enter the school playground via the green double gates on Woodville Road and take your child straight to the school dining room.  There is a combination padlock on the gates during club hours.  We will give you the numbers needed to open the padlock and access CRASH.  The numbers must only be given to those people who you wish to collect your child. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THE CODE TO YOUR CHILD/REN. This helps us to maintain the safety of all children at CRASH. 

There is a doorbell system in place to alert us of your arrival.

Please let us know as soon as possible if you are going to be late in collecting your child as this will     allow us to tell your child and to avoid any unnecessary distress.  CRASH closes at 6:00pm and a late fee of £5.00 per family will be charged.

Administration of Medication

If, at any time, your child requires medication to be administered whilst attending Crash, parents must complete a Medicine Consent Form on arrival and sign an Administration of Medication form on collection of your child.

The C.R.A.S.H. Committee

If you would like to become more involved in the management of CRASH, you are welcome to join our Committee. The Committee meets once a month to discuss issues and develop new ideas.  Please speak to the Co-ordinator if you are interested.
