After School Club

Holywood After School Club aims to provide a happy, safe, warm and stimulating environment for all children to play, learn and develop freely.

We provide wrap around childcare for up to 48 weeks in the year and additional cover for school closures and holiday periods. This means when you register with us you sign up for care all year round. We are registered with the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust (SEHSCT) to care for up to 60 children (throughout the year) on Monday through to Friday. Our policies and procedures follow the guidance of the ‘Childminding and Day Care for Children Under Age 12 Minimum Standards’. A copy of all the Clubs Policies and Procedures are available to parents and are located on the Parents Notice Board.

The Health and Social Care Trust Early Years Team carry out an inspection at our facility each year. The ‘Early Years Teams are specialist teams of social workers within Health and Social Care (HSC) Trusts who are responsible for the registration, inspection, monitoring and support of childminders and day care providers.’ (Early Years Teams). They check the suitability of our premises and equipment ensuring they are safe; the suitability of the staff providing care and the standard of care being offered. A copy of our annual inspection report is displayed within our Club.

The club runs from 2.00pm—5.30pm (5.45pm last collection) for children from Primary 1 to Primary 7. We are based at 108 High Street, Holywood and we provide play opportunities for children with a wide range of planned and free play activities both indoors and outdoors. We have 3 playrooms on the 1st floor and a large Community Hall. The club gives the children a mix of active time where they can play, and quiet times where they can relax, or do their homework.

The club provides healthy snacks 4 days a week, which consist of breads; crackers; sandwiches; fruit and fresh water or milk to drink. This is in line with Playboard’s Fit4play Quality Award.
