WASPS (Waterbeach After School Play Scheme) is an out of school club providing quality childcare for children aged 4-11 years, before and after school.
For more information or to apply contact the Club Manager at [email protected].
The club provides a caring and fun environment with play opportunities designed to promote personal and social development, physical and intellectual skills and creative achievement.
We recognise these differences and listen and respond to them individually and appropriately making them feel valued and have comfort in the knowledge that we all make mistakes, but that we aren't ridiculed, patronised or shouted at because of them.
We think it is important that the children feel involved in the planning and day-to-day running of the club.
We facilitate weekly children's meetings which are run by the children for the children.
At these meetings they have the opportunity to discuss any ideas, questions or concerns that they have about the club.
They are encouraged to suggest activities they would like to do, foods they would like to have at snack time and any changes that they would like to make to the environment, so that their ideas can be included in future planning.
Surveys of the children's views are conducted enabling them to have the opportunity to put their views/ideas across, which is especially important for those who don't have the confidence to speak out at meetings or just choose not to.
All of our Staff are experienced and/or qualified in child care or youth work, and registered with Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education).
We strive to employ a mix of well-trained Staff to enable WASPS to be a place where your child can be safe, have choices, feel respected and valued.
We hope your child will make friends, play, learn, experience diversity and have fun at WASPS.
We are committed to ensuring that our Staff enjoy the latest training opportunities and are up-to-date with government legislation relating to the care of the children.
WASPS policies and procedures and details of Staff training are available for parents/carers to read, situated at the front desk.
Please feel free to contact us on [email protected] with your suggestions or ideas, we appreciate parent's feedback and would be happy to introduce changes to meet the children's and family's needs!
