Kaistor Kids Club
Kaistor Kids Club is open to children aged from 2-11 years.
Our motto is Chill out and MELT with us:
MEET
ENJOY
LEARN
TRY
The aims and objectives of the club are to provide good quality childcare before and after school and during the school holidays. We aim to provide a secure and creative environment within which children can develop emotionally, physically, intellectually, creatively and socially. We aim to provide a varied selection of activities and games including sports, music and cultural activities.
We aim to provide the children with a variety of activities whilst at the club. We will also provide a variety of creative activities that will be arranged around whatever theme we are following. The children will be encouraged to take part in opportunities outside where outdoor play equipment will be readily available. We actively promote healthy pursuits and healthy living. We will also be promoting activities to celebrate various religious and cultural events from around the world.
The activities that will be carried out during the holiday will be similar to those that are carried out during term time, with the addition of more adventurous and time consuming activities. There are a variety of workshops that we will bring into the holiday programme. We will also arrange to go on some external excursions throughout the holidays. Parents will be provided with prior information about these trips and their consent will be obtained. During the holiday the children will require a packed lunch although drinks and healthy snacks will be provided.

What the children need to bring with them in the holidays
A coat or jacket, a hat, suitable clothing for messy play and suitable footwear for outdoor play appropriate to the season. We would request that children refrain from bringing their own toys please.
Property and belongings
Kaistor Kids does not accept responsibility for loss or damage to children's property. Every reasonable effort will be made to ensure that belongings are not lost or damaged. Please ensure all children's loose clothing and possessions are clearly named.

At the discretion of staff, we are prepared to administer prescribed medication is the request is registered in the medicine book. We request that parents do not send their child to the club if they are suffering from any infectious conditions or if they are not well enough to attend. Parents will be contacted through the session if their child should become ill and they may be asked to remove them.
