Due to very high demand, we are unable to take any more advance bookings for After school club on Tuesdays for January/February. There is the possibility of the occasional "on the day space" becoming available, but this would rely on cancellation and is therefore not guaranteed.

For information on availability, please email your enquiry to: afterschool@stcatherines.herts.sch.uk  detailing your requirements along with the name of your child(ren) and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Emergency contact telephone number for After school club: 07341848143
(available from 3.15pm daily) **please note change of number as of 3rd May**

Please note our daily closing time of 5:30pm

We are pleased to be able to offer after school child care provision to children attending St Catherine's.

Our after school club runs from Monday to Friday during the school term. Children will be collected from their classroom at the end of the school day and can remain at the club up until 5:30pm.

Parents are asked to book and pay for spaces a half term in advance. The club has become very busy and therefore there may not always be spaces available. With this in mind, we ask that parents cancel unwanted bookings at least 1 week before the day of the booking. Any bookings which are not cancelled within 24 hours of the session required (unless in the case of a child being off sick), will still be charged at our minimum fee of £8.

All children will get a piece of fruit/biscuit and a drink at the start of the session. Children will then be offered a snack tea at around 4:30pm (eg. crackers, toast, sandwiches).

There will be a variety of activities on offer for the children including outdoor games and activities, arts and craft, board games, reading and drawing.

Charges for the club (per child) are as follows:

3.15pm - 5:00pm: £8
3.15pm - 5.30pm: £10
(Please ensure that children are collected no later than 5:30pm as in order to keep the cost to parents down, the staff are not paid after this time)

As we are a cashless school, payment should be made online via SchoolComms or, if your employer offers them, by childcare vouchers (please contact Mrs Harvey in the school office for more information). Click the link at the bottom of this page to be taken to our online payments page.

We look forward to welcoming you!
