Morning & After-School Provision

Our ‘Wrap Around Care’ at Thurlow Church of England (VC) Primary School

For parents and carers who need childcare before and/or after school, ‘Wrap Around Care’ is a popular choice.

At Thurlow we endeavour to support working families by offering a daily breakfast club which runs from 8am Monday to Friday, providing a fun and safe environment where qualified and experienced staff organise a range of activities for the children to enjoy. We also offer sports clubs on various days, which run until 4.15pm; these are dependent on uptake.

From September 2023 attendance at morning sports club and after-school club will incur a 'flat-rate' charge of £2.00 per session, per child. This charge is to support staff costs to ensure all aspects of child protection and safeguarding are met and the health and safety of those in attendance is assured. 
 
Places will continue to be limited, allocated on a first come, first served basis and priority given to working parents and those in receipt of pupil premium funding. 
 
To use this facility please book your place with the School Office and be sure to make your payments in advance using our online facility. 
 
 

For working families with additional childcare requirements we recommend ‘Happy Days Childcare’ which is located a mere 8 minutes from us, just off the A143 and provides wrap-around-care provision from 7am in the morning until 6.30pm in the evening, Monday to Friday. Happy Days also provide transport to and from our school as required. For more information please contact:

  • Outside activities (weather permitting)
  • Gymnastics
  • Oversized games ~ Connect Four, Jenga
  • Arts and crafts

After School Club

We currently have sports club provision running from 3.15pm until 4.15pm. The focus for the club varies on a half-termly basis, depending on our children’s interests and the weather. Currently we are offering Football Club.
