Before & After School Club
Manager: Lisa Burns
Deputy Manager: Sharon Nester
Our breakfast club and after school club is now provided by Didsbury CE after being run successfully for many years by Elm Grove Kids' Club an independent charity that worked closely with the school. The club is run on a day-to-day basis by Lisa Burns, Club Manager, and Sharon Nester, Deputy Manager, and a team of qualified playworkers.
In addition, many of the staff at the club also work within the school, either as lunchtime organisers or support teaching assistants and therefore they get to know the children really well.

Payment of Fees
An invoice is sent via email at the start of the month and fees are payable within 7 days on the school payment system - Parent Pay. We also accept childcare voucher payments and payments via the government tax-free childcare scheme.
Breakfast & Snack Times
During each morning session we provide cereal, toast and fruit. During the afternoon session we provide a light, healthy snack and have a fruit bowl available later in the afternoon. A menu is displayed at the start of each week. Children can make requests for a particular snack which we always aim to fulfil. Children will also have access to juice and water throughout the sessions.
Registering a Child
Parents/carers can confidently register their child(ren) at the club, booking them in when availability allows either on a permanent or an ad hoc basis. (Upon termination of a permanent place one month's written notice is required.)
Parents can register their child at the club by completing all the 'Registration Forms' and returning them to the school or by emailing them to:
kidsclub@thrive-dce.com
Registration forms need to be fully completed before a child can be booked into the club. Please find the club's behaviour policy attached below.
